Continuing with their tactics of delaying acceptance of the demands of farmers to repeal the farm laws enacted in June, 2020, government of India has once again engaged the agitating farmer leaders in an exercise in futlility. It is quite clear that government, as usual, believes the agitators will get tired and will turn against their leaders spearheading the struggle for securing justice for the farming community, and also for the consumers of farm products across the country. It is well known how government of India is well versed in the art of dividing people. One can discern it in their characterization of the struggle as a Sikh or Punjabi struggle which is so untrue. It is struggle of all farmers regardless if their faith. Again, government is trying to project it as a struggle of a people of a region- Punjab. A blatant lie. It is a struggle if farmers of all regions in India. I know the farmers’ leaders leading the struggle are a mature people. But I must remind them that they must not fall to the machinations of the government which is hell bent on failing the people’s movement , the like of which no government has witnessed in more than half a century, since the movement under Jai Prakash Narayan during Indira Gandhi’s emergency days.
It should remind this government which is so insensitive to the people of the country that no government is strong enough to face the onslaught of the collective power of a united people. Hope, better sense will prevail with the power drunk government of India before it is too late.
