JAMMU, Jan 11: A huge tractor rally was taken out by farmers in Marh Assembly Segment today in support of farm bills passed by Parliament last year.
Hundreds of farmers with over 500 tractors reached Gajansoo from different villages of Marh constituency of Jammu district, this afternoon and held a rally throughout the constituency in support of the New Farm Laws which were recently been passed by the Modi led Government at the Centre.
The rally was held under the leadership of former Minister, Ex MLA Marh, Sukhnandan Choudhary who is also the chairman of Panchayati Raj Cell of BJP for JKUT.
Farmers, who reached Gajansoo from different villages of the Marh constituency have expressed their full faith in Modi led Government at the Centre and at the same time they also welcomed their local leader Sukhnandan Choudhary who they said has always stood with them in all circumstances.
The farmers were quite confident that PM, Narendra Modi can’t do anything against the farming community of the country.
Choudhary Sukhnandan, while speaking to media persons asserted that when the Prime Minister is ensuring MSP procurement to continue then why there is hue and cry against these laws. He also urged the farmers who are agitating on Delhi border to end this agitation as there is nothing against the farmers.
He attacked Congress and other opposition parties for misleading the farming community on new Farm laws. He clearly said that provision of MSP is still there and opposition parties are befooling the innocent farming community against these laws. He said that Prime Minister of India is really a well wisher of the farmers of the country we have ever seen in last 70 years.
“Farmers of Marh constituency are fully supporting these Farm bills and one can guess the same by witnessing the huge gathering of the farmers of Marh constituency along with their tractors,” he added.
He once again cautioned farming community not to fall prey in the hands of opposition parties and some vested interests who have left no stone unturned to loot the public money in last 70 years.
Sarpanches and Panches of almost all the Panchayats of Marh constituency also participated in the rally.
Sukhnandan said that in the interest of the farming community and common people at large all the like minded people should come out and strongly dispel the misinformation being spread out by politicians having vested interests.
