SKM to take call on agitation today

Sonepat, December 3

After the scrapping of the three farm laws, the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) will on Saturday hold a meeting at the Singhu border to decide the fate of the year-long movement.

Farmers as well as the government were keeping an eye on the SKM’s meeting tomorrow. However, the scene at the Delhi borders, especially Singhu and Tikri, seems to have changed since the Union Government scrapped the farm laws. Farmers, who were staying at the borders for the past one year, have started preparation to move towards their homes, but were also waiting for the final call.

Jangveer Singh Chauhan, president, Doaba Kisan Committee, said all preparations for the SKM meeting had been finalised and security would be tightened during the meeting.

Kulwinder Sandhu, general secretary, Jamhuri Kisan Sabha, said the Central Government was assuring about the cancellation of the cases, but no concrete step had been taken so far and talks with the Haryana Government were under way.

Yogender Yadav, convener, Jai Kisan Andolan, said all farm leaders would go to the SKM’s meeting with a positive mind tomorrow.

If the government agreed to take back FIRs, was clear about the formation of the committee on the MSP and other pending demands, the farm leaders would also go with positivity, he said. —TNS
