Farmers Are Wrong To Take Maximalist Position; They Should Throw Out Left Activists Who Wonât Let Them Break The Deadlock

Farmers protest against new laws.
Snapshot
Genuine farmer leaders should take back control of the movement and throw out malcontents who have no intention of furthering the farmersâ interests.
They should learn from history.
The voices sympathetic to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) likened the Punjab farmersâ march to New Delhi to the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests last year. This was due to similarities in modus operandi of blocking roads, involvement of same personalities in both the movements, pro-Khalistani and anti-Hindu rhetoric by some, etc.

Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Thursday mocked Union minister Raosaheb Danve for his comment that China and Pakistan were behind the farmers’ protests against the Centre’s three agricultural laws, ANI reported. Raut said that the Narendra Modi government should immediately conduct a surgical strike on the two neighbouring countries if it had any such information.
“If a Union minister has information that China and Pakistan have a hand behind farmers agitation, then, the defence minister should immediately conduct a surgical strike on China and Pakistan,” Raut was quoted as saying by the news agency. “The president, PM [prime minister], HM [home minister and the chiefs of the Armed Forces should discuss this issue seriously.”
