AAP, BJP indifferent to farmers: Punjab Congress chief Raja Warring

Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) chief and Ludhiana MP Amrinder Singh Raja Warring has accused both the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of being vehemently anti-farmer and working tirelessly against the interests of the state.

On the 101st day of farm leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal’s hunger strike, Warring expressed anguish over the continued silence of both the AAP government in Punjab and the BJP government at the Centre towards the legitimate demands of farmers.

“This blatant ignorance by both AAP and the BJP towards the struggles and rightful demands of our farmers only exposes their anti-farmer mindset. It proves how hollow their promises have always been,” said Warring.

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi conveniently befriends Punjab during elections, but his actions throughout his tenure have repeatedly worked against the state and its hard-working farmers. Similarly, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, who leads AAP, the B-Team of the BJP, has time and again betrayed our farmers in the time of need,” alleged the Congress leader.
