Centre should speak to farmers, stress JJP lawmaker and five Independents
Five Independent MLAs of Haryana and Jannayak Janta Party’s Barwala legislator Jogi Ram Sihag held an informal meeting at Panchkula on Tuesday, demanding that the Centre should find an immediate solution to the ongoing farmers’ agitation.
Besides Mr. Sihag, Badshahpur MLA Rakesh Daultabad, Pundri MLA Randhir Singh Gollen, Prithla MLA Nayan Pal Rawat, Nilokheri MLA Dharam Pal Gonder and Dadri MLA Sombir Sangwan attended the meeting.
Playing down the meeting’s significance, Mr. Sangwan said they met for lunch at Mr. Gollen’s invitation but added that the government should immediately find a solution to the imbroglio. The Dadri MLA had earlier this month resig-ned as chairman of Haryana Livestock Development Boa-rd and withdrawn support to the BJP-JJP coalition government.
