Keep all aside to solve ryots's impasse as 'National Priority': SAD urges Modi

“The agitators’ demands on the three anti-farmer Acts are perfectly legitimate, secular and constitutional. The Prime Minister and his colleagues have repeatedly maintained that the Assured Marketing of farmers’ produce at Minimum Support Price will be continued under all circumstances. That being so, there should be no objection to nor problem in giving a legal shape to the government’s commitments through necessary legislation. ”
A meeting of the Core Committee of the party which met here Saturday afternoon, also came down heavily against the Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar for his “highly provocative, dangerous and divisive statement dubbing the farmers as Khalistanis . “Do these beleaguered elderly men and ladies from farmers’ families look like Khalistanis to Khattar and his party ? It is not the farmers
but the Haryana CM himself who is guilty of flouting the Constitution of the country on the anniversary of the Adoption Day of the Statute.
Releasing the details of the meeting to the media, Mr Harcharan Bains, Principal Advisor to the SAD President, said the Core Committee accused the Haryana CM of trying to revive the old Congress tactics to paint its political opponents as separatists. “It is the same mindset that was responsible for the Congress repression against Akali agitators in 1982 and continued for a decade and a half, painting a fiercely patriotic community as separatist , “ said the SAD Resolution, adding that the Haryana CM was trying to create advance-justification for repression and persecution against farmers.”
“The fact is that the BJP and its governments at the center and in Haryana have got jittery by the success of the farmers’ secular and democratic movement.”
The SAD president said SAD and every Akali worker has been in the movement from day-one. “We led a massive farmers’ protest march from three sacred Takhat Sahiban to Chandigarh. The party later merged its efforts with the on-going movement as there were apprehensions that a parallel show by SAD might hamper a united fight against the center. Since then, in deference to the wishes of the agitating farmers,our entire focus and efforts have been towards a united fight with whole-hearted participation by our workers and local leaders at different levels,” Mr Badal.
