Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during his visit to the Singhu border checked the facilities in place for the protesting farmers. The border connects Delhi and Haryana .
Deputy CM Manish Sisodia and other AAP MLAs, too, have accompanied CM Arvind Kejriwal on his visit to Singhu border to review arrangements made by the government.
After meeting the protesting farmers and speaking to the media, Kejriwal said, “Our party, MLAs & leaders have been serving farmers as ‘sevadars’ ever since. I haven’t come here as CM but as a ‘sevadar’. Farmers are in trouble today, we should stand with them. AAP supports Dec 8th Bharat Bandh, party workers will participate in it across the nation.”
He added, “We support all demands of farmers. Their issue & demands are valid. My party & I have stood with them from the very beginning. At the beginning of their protests, Delhi Police had sought permission to convert 9 stadiums into jails. I was pressurised but didn’t permit.”
