Said, Their Current Protests Are Nothing but Crocodile Tears
Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, March 20
AAP Health Minister Dr. Balbir Singh today appealed to protesting farmers to reconsider their strategy and shift their protests to places where the Central Government would feel the impact. He emphasized that the ongoing border closures are causing immense harm to Punjab’s economy, industries, and residents, while having no effect on the BJP-led Central Government responsible for addressing the farmers’ concerns.
On his X account, the AAP leader said, " We are sons of farmers. Our party & leaders have always stood with farmers. We fought against the central government, standing shoulder to shoulder with farmers. Harming the interests of Punjab & Punjabis was never the cause of farmers protest. Thats why road blockades have been lifted. We will support farmers in their cause of getting justice from central government. We have to save & revive punjab’s economy. Nobody will invest if everything is blocked. All sections of society wanted these blockades to end. Crocodile tears of opposition parties fool nobody. They are the ones who betrayed farmers at every step."
