Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora arrives at Tikri Border to inspect security arrangements here in view of the farmers’ protest.
On farmers’ protest, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi says, “The demands that they have requested, the majority of them have been fulfilled by the government. Regarding the remaining demands, concerned ministers like Piyush Goyal, Arjun Munda, and Nityanand Rai have been talking to them since last week. I request them (farmers) since they have given the demands now & it is a known fact that the government is pro-farmer…This is what I appeal to them.”
On former Maharashtra CM Ashok Chavan joining BJP, he says, “Congress is a sinking boat. Congress party leadership is not able to take their party leaders into confidence. Therefore, these things are happening.”
“Farmer brothers, today is a historic day! Congress has decided to give legal guarantee of MSP to every farmer on crops as per Swaminathan Commission. This step will change the lives of 15 crore farmer families by ensuring their prosperity. This is the first guarantee of Congress on the path of justice,” Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi said in an X post.
