The protest site on the Haryana-Delhi border at Singhu on Friday
GHAZIABAD/NOIDA: Farmers’ outfits from UP heading the agitation at various places on Delhi’s borders reached out to each other to forge a united stand against the new farming laws while dismissing Union agriculture minister Narendra Tomar’s open letter to farmers as a reiteration of the same things the Centre had been saying.
The Bharatiya Kisan Union (Tikait), which is among the two outfits leading the protests at UP Gate on the Ghazipur border, in fact saw Tomar’s latter as a “hardening of stance” by the Centre despite the agitation at Delhi’s doorstep continuing for three weeks now.
