Bhartiya Kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait urged the people to join 'MSP Adhikar Kisan Mahapanchaya' in Lucknow, seen as a show of strength by the unions.
The agitation spearhead, Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), also said the farmers would go ahead with their planned protests, including a mahapanchayat in Lucknow on Monday to press for a law on Minimum Support Price (MSP) and a march to Parliament on November 29 to observe one year of anti-farm law protests.
'Kisan Mahapanchayat' in Lucknow
Besides legal guarantee on MSP, the other demands include withdrawal of Electricity Amendment Bill, scrapping of provisions of fines for stubble burning in the Commission for Air Quality Management Law, withdrawal of cases against farmers registered during the protests in different states, sacking and arrest of Union minister Ajay Kumar Mishra over the Lakhimpur Kheri incident, and compensation to kin of around 700 farmers who the unions claim died during the protests and allotment of a site at Singhu Border to set up a memorial.The last three demands in the list of six are new additions which, the SKM said, have arisen during the “historic movement in the last one year” and therefore these too need to be resolved immediately. These demands will be taken up at ‘Kisan Mahapanchayat’ in Lucknow on Monday when the farmer leaders would explain their stance and strongly pitch for action against Mishra who belongs to Uttar Pradesh. The forthcoming state election in UP seems an added trigger for holding the meeting in Lucknow. While welcoming the PM’s announcement on Friday about the decision to repeal the farm laws, the SKM in its email to him said farmers now expect his government to “fulfil promise at the earliest and in full”.
