Farmers’ leader Rakesh Tikait on Tuesday stressed the need for launching another farmers’ struggle on the lines of the one staged in Delhi in for 13 months and called upon farmers to be ready for it.
Participating in a programme organised by the Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS) to mark the 88th birth anniversary of its founder M.D. Nanjundaswamy in Bengaluru, Mr. Tikait said a campaign had become the need of the hour as the problems of farmers were far from over and their demands were yet to be met with.
He described Nanjundaswamy as a link between the northern and southern regions of the country though he did not know Hindi. It was Nanjundaswamy who created awareness among the country’s farm sector about the international policies related to agriculture and farm trade.
