Chandigarh, December 19, 2024 (Yes Punjab News)
Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) Working President Balwinder Singh Bhunder today appealed to all political parties as well as Kisan organizations to work jointly to save the life of veteran Kisan leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal.
Talking to newsmen after visiting the Kisan leader at Khanauri, Mr Balwinder Bhunder said “this is not the time to score brownie points by speaking in divergent voices. We should unite and appeal to the central government to accept the demands of Dallewal Sahab to pave the way for ending his fast unto death”.
He said it was unfortunate that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government and its chief minister had not taken up the issue in all earnestness with the centre. “The chief minister should call on the Prime Minister and impress upon the latter to do justice with farmers since the Prime Minister had assured that all the demands of the farmers, including making MSP a legal guarantee, would be accepted”.
Mr Bhunder also appealed to the Kisan organizations to come on a common platform to devise a common strategy to take up the issues of the farming community so that they could be resolved. He also made a personal appeal to the veteran Kisan leader to end his fast saying Punjab needed him and his services and that he should not endanger his life in this manner.
Mr Bhundur was accompanied bySAD leader Iqbal Singh Jhundan, Rajinder Deepa & Winnderjit Singh Goldy during the visit.EOM
