Ludhiana: Members of a farmers organisation banged thalis during Prime Minister’s ‘Mann ki Baat’ programme near a popular mall on Ferozepur Road here. A few other members of the organisation sat on a hunger strike against the recently passed farming laws. They also raised slogans against the Modi government.
The protesters said that whereas the Prime Minister was listening to the talks of a few corporates, but he was not listening to farmers and had closed his ears to them, which is why they were banging thalis during his ‘Mann ki Baat’. They demanded that the government should listen to them as people have elected it and not the few corporate houses.
They said that the Prime Minister was doing wrong as he was not listening to farmers and was still going on with his “Mann ki Baat”. He demanded that the government should repeal the ‘black laws’.
