Jalandhar, October 23

Members of the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee today burnt effigies of Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani. Opposing the farm laws, farmers gathered at Lohian and burnt effigies of the corporate houses under the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee district president Salwinder Singh Jania and zone president Gurmail Singh Rehrwan.

Addressing the gathering, state cashier Gurlal Singh Pandori said the anti-farmer policies of the Modi Government were an attack on the democracy. To protest against these laws, effigies of the corporate owners would be burnt in all villages by farmers on October 25, he said.

He also said the state government was merely pretending to back the farmers. Farmers asserted that the Rail Roko dharna at Devidaspura would go on for an indefinite period.

Farmers further reiterated that they would not back down on their protests until their demands are met by the government.
