Centre must fulfil its promises, say farm unions
Bathinda, March 21
Scores of farmers under the banner of BKU (Ekta Ugrahan), staged a protest in front of the district administrative complex in Bathinda over non-fulfilment of promises made to the SKM at the time of repeal of three farm laws; a legal guarantee of MSP and cancellation of FIRs registered against farmers among others.
