Bhubaneshwar: Farmer’s body and other organizations under the aegis of Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), a united front of farmer organizations, will last for six hours stop the train On Monday protesting against the “no action” taken against the Union Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra in the Lakhimpur Kheri violence.
They will also demand the harshest punishment for the culprits involved in the killing of farmers in the violence case. The agitation may affect train services across the state between 10 am and 4 pm on Monday.
Passengers returning after Puja holidays and holidays will face trouble as Rail Roko may delay the arrival time of their trains. Since the protesters may stop many trains across the country, the passengers will have to bear the brunt. Some of them also face difficulties in connecting trains.
“I’m returning from Vaishno Devi Pilgrimage in J&K with my family members via Delhi, but I am worried about rail roko. The scheduled arrival of my train at Puri is on Tuesday at 5.25 AM. If our train is halted at several stations, I cannot attend my office on Tuesday,” said a central government employee.
Some people who have some work outside the state may also have to face trouble for the movement. “I have an urgent meeting in Kolkata on Tuesday morning. I have canceled my ticket booked for Puri-Howrah Superfast Special, which departs from BHUBANESWAR at 11.50 AM on MONDAY due to RAIL ROKO call. I booked a bus ticket instead of choosing a train,” said Mukesh Swain, a merchant.
Congress The Left parties have extended their support to the 18 October agitation. Showing solidarity with the farmers’ movement, their farmers’ wings will take to the streets.
Suresh Panigrahy Samyukta Kisan Morcha said that they will observe rail roko at various railway stations in the state demanding the dismissal of Union Minister Ajay Mishra from his post with immediate effect. “Apart from withdrawing the agriculture laws, we demand strict action against those involved in the killing of farmers in the Lakhimpur Kheri incident,” he said.
Sources in the East Coast Railway (ECoR) said officials were asked on Thursday to be on alert for the rail roko movement of farmers’ organisations.
