There has been a ruckus in Punjab after the lathi-charge during the public meeting of Shiroman Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Badal in Moga. The police have registered a criminal case against 200 farmers who protested. On the other hand, Sukhbir Badal, the host of the public meeting, has come under the target of farmer leaders. In this matter, a meeting has been announced by the United Farmers Front on Saturday, in which a tough decision can be taken.
Let us tell you that in order to capitalize on the agitation started against three new farming reform laws last year, the only Shiromani Akali Dal minister in the central power, Harsimrat Kaur had resigned. According to political experts, this move of Harsimrat Kaur is being seen by the Akali Dal as preparing the ground for the assembly elections to be held in the near future. Although till now there is no information about when the elections will be held, but before that the election campaign has been started by the Akali Dal. Party President and MP Harsimrat Kaur’s husband Sukhbir Badal is holding public meetings under the program of 100 days 100 assembly constituency.

Not only this, bricks and stones have also moved during this and many farmers have also been injured. However, a DSP and a constable have also suffered injuries. In this case, while naming 14 farmers, the police have registered a case against a total of 200 for attempt to murder. After this, the leaders of the United Kisan Morcha got furious.
Baldev Sirsa said – Akali Dal goons pelted stones
Farmer leader Baldev Singh Sirsa from Haryana has gone live from the Facebook page of Kisan Ekta Morcha and said that when the election meeting was going on in Moga, the farmers had come to question Sukhbir Badal, but the Akali Dal goons pelted stones on the farmers. The police have resorted to lathicharge. The United Kisan Morcha has announced that BJP leaders will not be allowed to hold any rally and leaders of other parties are to be questioned. Everyone has the right to have their say in a democracy. On the one hand, when farmers are struggling on the border of Delhi, leaders are holding rallies in Punjab. It is being pretended to be with the farmers. He cannot allow leaders to be left open like this. Akali Dal is destroying the brotherhood of Punjab by holding rallies and implementing the agenda of BJP.

Rajewal said why Sukhbir was in such a hurry to campaign
Balbir Singh Rajewal, senior leader of United Kisan Morcha says that if elections are yet to be held in February 2022, then why Sukhbir Singh Badal has to come so early that he is campaigning. Whereas parties start elections only two months before the elections. When the farmer is struggling and there is anger in his mind towards the leaders, then such steps should not be taken. Sukhbir Singh Badal should stop these rallies when people are getting furious. It will be a matter of fighting brother to brother in Punjab. They say that this type of lathi-charge on farmers cannot be tolerated. For this a meeting has been called on Saturday and he will take strict action on it.
