Haryana Pradesh Congress Committee chief Kumari Selja today visited Singhu border in Sonepat and extended her party’s support to the farmers’ protest.
Interacting with them, she told them that the party was extending full support to ‘Bharat Bandh’ onTuesday. “The BJP government at the Centre is only concerned about their capitalist friends and not farmers,” she said.
Congress MLA Shamsher Singh Gogi was also present.
These farm laws need to be abolished.” She said the farmers were not consulted before passing these farm laws. “The voice of opposition was also not heard. When the farmers started protesting, even then the government did not budge. Finally, they were forced to leave their homes and march towards Delhi.”
Under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, the party had been at the forefront of protests against these farm laws, she said. “The Congress governments in various states passed new laws to nullify the impact of these farm laws. These black laws will be repealed when the Congress will come to power,” she said.
