Repeal farm laws: Tikait’s son to Centre

Amritsar, April 19

Gaurav Tikait, son of farmer leader Rakesh Tikait, said their struggle would continue until the three farm laws were repealed and a law on the MSP was enacted.

Accompanied by other farmer leaders and actor Sonia Mann, he paid obeisance at the Golden Temple and prayed for the success of the farmers’ struggle.

He was in Amritsar to attend a farmers’ event at Kukranwala village. “The movement will succeed and the government will have to relent. The Centre was bent on suppressing the farmers’ agitation, but it has ended up being more intensified. Now, the Covid-19 threat has been made an excuse to scuttle the movement, but it will have no impact”, he said. Meanwhile, the SGPC honoured the visitors with siropas. — TNS
