Chandigarh, January 17

Supporting the issue of the farmers staging a protest at the Delhi border, a section of ex-servicemen has also complimented the contribution of women in the ongoing agitation.

Addressing the gathering, Brig KS Kahlon (retd), president of All India Defence Brotherhood Association’s Punjab chapter, said the jawans and kisans are the true defenders of the nation, but this potent force is being awfully neglected by the government.

He said veterans have been involved in planning and organising the agitation and thereafter they have been visiting the Delhi border in batches and have also assisted in managing and handling of the operation such as traffic control, stage management and administration.

The veterans also said repeal of the three agricultural laws is the only solution to safeguard the interest of the farmers and would also been in the overall interests of the national.
