Democratic right to protest by farmers
Sant Seechewal said that it is the constitutional and democratic right of the farmers who have been coming to Delhi and protesting for the last 10 months. He said that the life of farmer leader Jagjit Singh is always in danger. The central government should not delay this.
Sant Seechewal said that this time he had to raise the issue of farmers’ demands and economic condition in the House, but every time this issue could not be raised due to uproar. His four-time Zero Hour also became a victim of the uproar.
Farmers’ income is decreasing: Seechewal
Referring to a report presented by the committee in the court, Sant Seechewal said that according to that report, the income of farmers is decreasing day by day. Whereas after 75 years of independence, everyone has touched the lap of development. Every year an average of 18 thousand farmers are committing suicide due to financial constraints. Which is very sad. He said that every time corporate loans are waived off by the government, but farmers are not listened to. He strongly demanded that just as the loans of corporates are waived off, the loans of farmers should also be waived off.
