Union law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Sunday affirmed that stern action will be taken against nation breakers "Tukde Tukde Gang" those who are trying to take advantage of the innocent farmers movement against the new farm laws. Prasad, the Union Minister for Law and Justice, made this assertion while launching Bihar BJPs state-wide "Kisan Chaupal Sammelan" (farmers conference) in support of the three agricultural Acts at Tekbigha village in Bakhtiarpur assembly constituency of Patna district.
"They (those protesting farm laws) are saying that they will not withdraw their movement unless and until these laws are withdrawn. We would like to say that Narendra Modi government respects farmers but would like to make it clear that stern action will be taken against ''tukde tukde gang'' taking advantage of farmers movement," Mr Prasad said. He added that "I want to ask who are these people who are talking the language of breaking the country... Now demands are being raised to free those so-called intellectuals who are in jails for indulging in rioting in Delhi and Maharashtra".
"Police have filed chargesheets, they are not able to obtain bail from the court as trials are underway. Now these people have taken refuge under farmers movement for their interest but we will not allow them to succeed in their goal," the minister said. Agriculture Minister Tomar also warned the protesters to be careful as misuse of their platform by the "anti-social" as well as the "Leftist and Maoist" elements conspiring to spoil the atmosphere are happening. Piyush Goyal Minister of Food and Consumer Affairs is straight to the point and said certain Leftist and Maoist elements seem to have taken "control" of the agitation and rather than discussing on farmer issues, they seem to be having some other agenda.
