The 7th Karnataka State Conference of All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), a frontal organisation of the Communist Party of India (CPI), was inaugurated by AIKS national president Ravula Venkaiah and National General Secretary Atul Kumar Anjaan in Kalaburagi on Monday.
Earlier, hundreds of farmers who had arrived in the city from different parts of the State marched in a procession raising slogans against the ‘anti-farmer and pro-corporate’ policies of the BJP-led Union and State governments.
In his inaugural address, Mr. Anjaan recalled the year-long historic farmers’ movement on the borders of Delhi and the Union Government’s efforts to suppress by labelling it as one sponsored by terror outfits.
