Several associations and groups of farmers from different parts of the country are heading to New Delhi as a protest against the controversial farm laws approved by the Central Government. The farmers from Karnataka are also a part of the two-day protest which commenced on Thursday, the Constitution day. The protests are being headed by All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee along with the National Alliance of People’s Movements.
Kodihalli Chandrashekhar, the President of Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha sid the concerns of the farmers must be heard by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said, “In the past, whenever farmers have protested, Prime Ministers have met them and listened to their problems. But Narendra Modi does not even want to meet us. We just want to be heard.”
He revealed the leaders of the farmers association from Karnataka have travelled to the capital city on Thursday. He iterated that farmers all over the country were deeply hurt by the unwillingness of the Union Government to even acknowledge the concerns of the farmers.
Kodihalli Chandrashekhar stated, “We are demanding that the three bills be rolled back immediately. We want fair prices for our produce. We have not asked for much.”
Regarding the Delhi Chalo protests, Jnana Sindhu Swamy of National Alliance of People’s Movement said,
”We chose the Constitution day to question the unconstitutional farm acts. The three acts are interrelated and they only help the big corporates. The model proposed by these bills are practiced in South Africa and Brazil. We know how it has failed. We are moving from a socialist society to a disastrous capitalist society.”
Nearly five hundred farmer unions and as many as five lakh people are anticipated to reach to Delhi on November 26, 2020 for protesting against the three farm laws passed by Union Government in late September.
