Union Minister of Bharatiya Janata Party from Punjab Ravneet Singh Bittu compared farmers to Taliban. Ravneet Bittu targeted the farmers and said that it is not the farmers but the farmer leaders who are opposing BJP in the state. At the same time, farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher has retaliated on this.
Will get the properties of farmer leaders investigated
Bittu said that Congress itself sends farmers. The land of big farmer leaders will be checked. After the by-election, we will talk about how much land they had when they were farmers and how much land they have now after becoming leaders. He warned the protesting farmer leaders that their properties will be investigated after the by-election. He said that this investigation of farmer leaders will be done after they become farmer leaders.
They themselves became the commission agents and sheller owners
Bittu said that the farmer leaders themselves have become commission agents and sheller owners and are now looting fertilizer trains in Punjab. They are looting trains. He said that they have become Talibani. Ravneet Bittu gave a statement about the farmers of Punjab that only some farmers are opposing the BJP. They are in favor of the BJP.
Bittu should be investigated - Farmer leader Pandher
At the same time, the head of the United Kisan Morcha, Sarwan Singh Pandher said that Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu should be investigated. They are calling the farmer leaders Taliban. He said that who has stopped them from investigating the farmers, they can investigate whenever they want. We are not going to be afraid. They should investigate during the elections, leave alone after the elections.
Farmers are not the only ones to blame for pollution
He said that it has been two years, the BJP government has not yet lifted rice from the shellers. He said that there is a shortage of DAP fertilizer not only in Punjab but also in UP, Haryana, MP and other states. Why does the government blame only the farmers for burning stubble? The fine on us has been doubled.
He changed his tone after joining BJP
He said that why does the government not take action against 51 percent industries. Why don't you take action against 25 percent vehicles. Pandher said that Bittu is surrounded. 6 months ago, he was the one who used to stand with the farmers. He used to defend the farmers. He said that former Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh also used to stand with the farmers. Today he has changed his tone after joining BJP.
Bittu should apologize
Pandher said that Bittu should apologize for his statement. Using the word Taliban is absolutely wrong. He said that Taliban is BJP. The government has caused violence in Manipur.
