Not a single farmer died in Uttar Pradesh during the farmers’ protest that began in November 2020 against the three farm laws, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has stated.
“Therefore, there arises no question of compensating their kin,” he said in response to a written question by Samajwadi Party MLA Ravidas Mehrotra in the Assembly.
“No farmer died in the kisan andolan [farmers agitation] in the State from November 2020,” he observed.
