Fight Covid, not us: Samyukt Kisan Morcha

Sonepat, April 18

The Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), which is spearheading the farmers’ movement against the three farm laws, today reiterated that protesting farmers would not return home until the Centre repealed the three legislations and ensured a legal guarantee on the MSP.

“Instead of fighting farmers and labourers, the Centre should focus on fighting the Covid pandemic,” the SKM said in a statement.

“The Modi government should make arrangements for migrant labourers who are returning home. If the Centre is really concerned about farmers, labourers and the public, it they should repeal the three laws immediately,” said Darshan Pal Singh, a member of the SKM.

The SKM also condemned the Centre for the crumbling health infrastructure in the country. “It has not learnt anything from the last year’s experience,” it said.

Meanwhile, the SKM honoured people living near the Singhu border.

It also demanded vaccination centres at the protest sites and anti-Covid equipment. — TNS
