Jagdeep Singh Aulakh, BKU (Charuni) state core committee member, said some farm leaders from Sirsa today discussed the issue that the government had failed to fulfil its promise of cancelling the FIRs.

Bahadur Singh Mehla, district president, IT Cell BKU (Charuni), said untimely rain and pink bollworm damaged the cotton crop in Sirsa, Fatehabad, Hisar, Bhiwani and other districts, but no relief had been given to the farmers.

The Punjab Government has promised to withdraw all cases registered against the farmers, but so far, the sedition case filed in Sirsa has not been cancelled. —
