Chandigarh, February 14
Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Sunday expressed shock over the recent statements of senior BJP leaders on the death of protesting farmers, saying the party had lost the moral and ethical right to continue to rule the country.
“The BJP-led government at the Centre should step down in the interest of the nation as should the Manohar Lal Khattar government in Haryana,” said the Chief Minister, slamming Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Tomar and Haryana Agriculture Minister JP Dalal for their statements on the death of farmers protesting against farm laws.
The CM also slammed Tomar for his statement that the Centre had no plans to provide financial assistance to the families of the deceased farmers. — TNS
