SKM suspends Parliament tractor march
New Delhi: The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), spearheading the farm stir, has decided to postpone the proposed tractor rally to Parliament on November 29, farmer leader Darshan Pal Singh said on Saturday. The decision was taken following a meeting, Singh said.
Friday marked one year of the protest against the three farm laws that the government is set to formally withdraw.
The SKM had earlier this month announced that 500 farmers will participate in a peaceful tractor march to Parliament every day during Winter Session starting November 29, to mark one year of the agitation against the Centre’s three agri laws. It had said that this will be done to “increase the pressure” on “this obstinate, insensitive, anti-people and pro-corporate BJP central government”, to force it to concede to the demands for which farmers across the country have launched a historic struggle for the past one year.
