Speaking to the media, both criticised the Central Government, accusing it of attempting to erode constitutional freedoms. “Using Haryana Police to block farmers from reaching Delhi is an insult to the democratic rights bestowed by Ambedkar,” they said, condemning the Centre’s actions as undemocratic and oppressive.
