The Samyukta Horata Karnataka will be organising tractor rallies in all district headquarters of the State on January 26 to condemn the BJP government’s failure to keep its word to the farmers on various issues including the guarantee of Minimum Support Price (MSP) for crops.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru on Friday, Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS) leader Badagalapura Nagendra said the rally of tractors and other vehicles by farmers will be held under the aegis of Samyukta Horata Karnataka and the KRRS is among the organizations taking part in the demonstration.
The rally has been planned to not only condemn the BJP government’s failure to fulfil its promises relating to providing MSP for crops, but also for its failure to provide land for construction of a memorial for the farmers, who had died during the agitation in Delhi against the three “anti-farmer” laws, and the scrapping of cases booked against the farmers.
