New Delhi: MP BJP Varun Gandhi continues to sing Jarring Notes in his party when he wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday, asking him to receive farmers’ requests for MSP guarantees for their plants and also seek actions against the Union Minister, holding it responsible for violence in Lakhimpur Kheri.
In a letter to PM Modi, MP from Pilibhit in Poll-Bound Uttar Pradesh said that until the demand for farmers was not fulfilled, their movements would not end.
He came out in consistent support from the farmers who protested, when his party had opposed the demand by farmers to revoke agricultural laws and all protests targeted at the BJP-led government.
Gandhi’s statement came a day after PM in his speech to the nation announced the revocation of three agricultural laws that triggered the year of protest by farmers.
The announcement of the withdrawal of controversial laws was welcomed by union leaders who pioneered agitation even as they said protests would continue until the steps were revoked in the parliament and the minimum support price (MSP) for legal guarantees.
Gandhi thanked Modi for “big hearts” in announcing the decision to revoke three agricultural laws, but added “more than 700 farmers’ sisters had been martyrs in this movement”, because they protested peacefully in very difficult and hostile conditions.
“If this decision has been taken before, innocent life will not disappear,” he dared to say in his letter.
In his letter posted on Twitter, Gandhi underlined the need to accept farmers’ requests for MSP law guarantees.
“This movement will not end without this request resolution and there will be anger that is widespread among them, which will continue to appear in one form or another.
Therefore, it is very important for farmers to get MSP legal guarantees for their plants,” Write it.
The BJP leader said the binding of law in MSP would provide large economic security protection to farmers and would empower small and marginal farmers.
“My simple request for you is that the government must immediately receive this request for the benefit of our nation,” Gandhi said in the letter.
Explain the violence of Lakhimur Kheri October 3, where farmers among the eight people were killed, as heartbreaking and “defective in our democracy”, said Gandhi, “it is my request to you that the right strict action is taken against trade unions.
Which has been connected to this incident, so there is a fair question.
“MP BJP submitted a request to PM without taking the Mishra name.
He also claimed that the Lakhimpur incident was the result of the atmosphere of hostility created against the peasant movement with provocative statements from many leaders sitting in senior positions.
Gandhi also demanded that RS 1 Crore compensation be given to farmers “Martyred” in this movement to the law and that all “motivated politics” fire shots on the farmers who protested.
Concluding his letter, Gandhi said that farmers hope that their demands will be resolved in a timely and sensitive and assert that democracy runs on constitutionality, discourse and empathy.
