New Delhi:
Senior Congress chief P Chidambaram on Sunday slammed the Central authorities and alleged that a few of its Ministers had alluded to the presence of “separatist” parts in ongoing farmers’ protest towards the agriculture reforms.
“Ministers have described the protesters against the Farm Laws as Khalistanis; agents of Pakistan and China; Maoists; and, the latest, tukde tukde gang,” the Congress chief tweeted.
“If you exhaust all these categories, it means there are no farmers among the thousands of protesters. If there are no farmers, why is the government talking to them?” he requested in a subsequent tweet.
Meanwhile, a number of rounds of talks have taken place between the Centre and farmer leaders relating to the legal guidelines however no headway has been made on the entrance.
The farmers are protesting towards the Farmer’s Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2020, the Farmer (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020 and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, 2020.
