Chandigarh, October 26
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) state president and MP Bhagwant Mann has condemned the Union Government for stalling goods trains to the state, alleging Prime Minister Narendra Modi had adopted a revengeful attitude towards the state with an attempt to derail the farmers’ struggle.
‘PM should shun arrogance, help peasants’
The Prime Minister should shun his arrogance and hold farmers’ hands in this hour of crisis. The suspension of train services is an attempt to sabotage their ongoing protest.
In an official statement, Mann said the dictatorial and arbitrary decision to stop goods trains to Punjab with a rider regarding passengers trains was a clever ploy to sabotage the farmers’ struggle against the black laws.
The AAP MP accused the Prime Minister of running away from holding talks with the farmers as he (Modi) was more interested to protect the corporate houses.
Mann advised Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh that instead of appealing farmers to call off their stir, he should raise their genuine concerns with the Prime Minister.
