New Delhi [India], January 11 (ANI): Haryana Pradesh Congress Committee (HPCC) president Kumari Selja on Sunday demanded 'special Assembly session to pass resolution to repeal farm laws enacted by Centre.'
Issue cannot be solved through legalistic means, says opposition
After the Supreme Court rapped the Centre over its failure to resolve the deadlock with farmers over the new farm laws, the Congress on Monday asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi apologise to the farmers and repeal the three laws.
Congress communication chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala, addressing a press conference, urged the top court to consider registering cases against Mr. Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Haryana Chief Minister (CM) Manihar Lal Khattar and Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath for destroying public property and digging up national highways to prevent the farmers from reaching Delhi.
