Pieter Friedrich, is currently the most widely discussed name in India as security agencies are trying to uncover his role in the anti-India information warfare after the emergence of his name in the ‘toolkit’ shared by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg.
The revelations made by the Delhi Police have highlighted his role as an alleged kingpin in waging the disinformation warfare for one and a half decade on directions of Pakistan s ISI.
Despite the Delhi Police making attempts to get a hold of him, he continues to peddle propaganda and attack India through his propaganda channels. He is making back-to-back appearances on leading media outlets as well as posting several tweets to defend himself.
According to another farmer leader, Amrik Singh, it was one of the many ways the protesters wanted to show their strength to the government. The three laws need to be repealed and the Samyukt Kisan Morcha is trying to put pressure on the government from every angle. But we have been protesting peacefully and will continue to do so, the Jalandhar state unit president of the BKU (Kadia), said.
He added that the rail roko event was limited to four hours because the farmers only wanted to send a message to the government and not inconvenience the public . We do not want to create problems for the passengers. We only want the government to accept our demands, so that they can also sleep peacefully and we can return home to our families, he said.
