“Members of Bhartiya Kisan Union from around the district Gautam Budh Nagar were sitting on a protest at more than a few locations in Noida and Greater Noida including both authority offices. They have raised their demands at all ranges from district magistrate to MLAs and chief minister. Yet there's no redress for them,” said Naresh Sharma on behalf of BKU.
While minister Jai Pratap Singh assured to take their problems to chief minister Yogi Adityanath in the presence of Jewar MLA Dhirendra Singh and district magistrate BN Singh, he urged the farmers’ delegation to finish their protest. However, the farmers refused to conform and persevered their sit-in dharna on the collectorate after handing their petition to the minister.
“We will continue to protest regardless of the warmth and scorching solar until our demands are fulfilled. This time the farmers may not be fooled easily by means of the authority or district management. On May 28 we will be able to hold another Maha panchayat and will make certain that the street would no longer be simple for the authority,” said a determined Surendra Pradhan from BKU.
