“If all these issues are not resolved within five days, then we will be left with no option but to discuss them in the next meeting of Sanyukt Kisan Morcha and outline the programme for struggle,” said BKU (Kadian) leaders.

“Today, Punjab’s farmer is suffering due to the wrong policies of the state government. Those farmers whose produce have been lifted are yet to get their payments,” the union alleged. It also demanded that DAP fertiliser should be made easily available to the farmers before the sowing of wheat starts.
