In an attempt to position himself as a national leader and build a consensus for an anti-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) platform, Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, attended an event here on Sunday, along with his Punjab and Delhi counterparts, Bhagwant Mann and Arvind Kejriwal, to honour the victims of the recent farm law agitation and soldiers who died fighting in the Galwan Valley.
Mr. Rao, who has started touring various States to get the support of all non-BJP parties for a legal backing for the minimum support price, urged farmers to resume their agitation for all the demands, including MSP on all crops with a constitutional guarantee.
Mr. Rao attended the event to pay tributes to the farmers from Punjab and Haryana, who lost their lives during the year-long farmers’ agitation’ against the Centre’s farm laws (now repealed) and the fallen soldiers in Galwan Valley. Mr. Rao was in Chandigarh as part of his week-long tour to attend national-level political and social programmes.
