With majority of leaders of various farm unions busy in preparing for the state Assembly polls, a group of farmers from Malwa region is still camping near Singhu border, demanding withdrawal of cases against farmers and seeking MSP.
On verge of being declared POs
Claiming that a number of farmers had received summons from various courts, farm leader Kuldeep Singh Daudhar said the respective courts would declare them proclaimed offenders, in case no remedial action was taken by the SKM or the Centre
The Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) too had given a call for a protest at Delhi on January 31 for withdrawal of cases registered at various police stations in Delhi and surrounding states during the struggle.
Farmers, led by farm leader Kuldeep Singh Daudhar, alleged that top SKM leaders had failed to watch interests of unorganised protesters who had been supporting the morcha since the launch of the farmer’s agitation.
Claiming that a number of farmers had received summons from various courts, Daudhar apprehended that the respective courts would declare a large number of Punjabi and Haryanvi farmers as proclaimed offenders, in case no remedial action was taken by the SKM or the Centre. He, along with others, has been summoned to be present in person at a court in Delhi on February 2. Baldev Singh Latala of the All-India Kisan Sabha, said: “The SKM has already announced to organise a dharna on January 31 in this regard.”
