BJP against farmers, employees: Hooda

Tribune News Service

Panipat, October 25

Former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Sunday termed the BJP government in the state as anti-farmer, anti-employee and anti-people.

Hooda was campaigning in support of Congress candidate Induraj Narwal in Kohala, Nooran Khedi, Ishapur Khedi, Rana Khedi, Gagana, Hooda Ala and Butana villages.

He said the focus of the earlier Congress government was ensuring the best possible price to farmers for their produce.

After implementation of the three anti-farmer laws, farmers would have no protection in case of fall in prices, he said.

Hooda said the condition of employees was similar. He said their allowances were being constantly cut and they were not getting salary on time. The government was constantly reducing jobs and many services were being privatised, he said.

Narwal said his victory would be the victory of farmers, labourers, workers, shopkeepers, small traders and the common man.
