Tractor rally violence in Delhi: Rashtriya Kisan Mazdoor Sangathan, BKU (Bhanu) quit farmers protests

New Delhi, Jan 27: In a major development, the All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee and farmer leader Sardar VM Singh on Wednesday have withdrawn support from the ongoing farmers protests against the 3 new farm laws.

The move has come after the mayhem that the national capital underwent on Tuesday during the tractor parade on the occasion of Republic Day.

Launching a scathing attack against Rakesh Tikait, VM Singh, All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee said,"We can't carry forward a protest with someone whose direction is something else. So, I wish them the best but VM Singh and All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee are withdrawing from this protest right away".

''I have nothing to do with the protest which is being led by them and over here being represented by Rakesh Tikait on their behalf,'' he further said.
