Ferozepur, February 4
Amid ongoing protests in Delhi, a farmer in this border area has written an open letter to PM Narendra Modi’s mother Hiraben Modi, urging her to convince her son to repeal the farm laws.
“The PM is not hearing the farmers out, but he surely will listen to his mother. I have written to her keeping in mind respect people of the country have for their mothers,” said Harpreet, adding he hoped the PM would pay heed to her.
“No one can order the PM to repeal the laws, but she can do so as a mother,” he added.
Harpreet of Golu Ka Mour village in Guruharsahai subdivision was among the three men arrested for allegedly trying to hold a protest without permission in support of farmers at The Ridge Maidan in Shimla on January 20. They were booked and later released on bail.— OC
