Fight for farmers like our leaders did for Independence: DKShi

Bengaluru: After the farmers coming to Bengaluru to participate in the anti-farm laws protest, ‘Raj Bhavan Chalo’, called by the party were being stopped by the police, KPCC President DK Shivakumar urged farmers to stop wherever they were and block highways.

“Many (farmers) have shared concern that they have been stopped by police and are not being allowed to come to Bengaluru from different other districts. I urge them to stop wherever they are, block highways, roads, and to be a part of the protest,” Shivakumar said.

He further added “It is evident that the BJP government is trying to stop farmers at any cost by not letting them participate in the protest. I request protesters to arrive near the Sangolli Rayanna statue (in Bengaluru) and participate in the massive protest rally.”

“We should protest in favor of farmers like the same way our leaders fought for Independence,” he said.
