Congress General Secretary( Uttar Pradesh East) Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has claimed that the Central government took the decision to repeal the three farms laws due to the approaching assembly elections.
She also questioned the Centre for being silent when farmers were called Aandolanjeevi’, goons, terrorists and traitors.
Addressing the media in Lucknow, Priyanka said, “Why is he doing this? Doesn’t the nation understand that polls are approaching and the government feels that the situation isn’t right. They can see in surveys that the situation is not right. So, they have come to apologise before polls.”
She slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for being silent when the BJP leaders called farmers ‘Aandolanjeevi’, goons, terrorists and traitors.”
“When farmers were being killed, batons were being used and they were being arrested -who was doing it? Your govt. Today you say that the laws will be repealed. How are we going to trust you? I am happy that the government understood that nobody is bigger than farmers in this nation,” she further said.
