New Delhi: Congress veteran P Chidambaram on Wednesday said after the party's victory in the urban body elections in Punjab, whether it still considers the three agricultural laws popular. He took to Twitter and wrote that the Modi government still believes that agricultural laws are popular and only a small group of farmers of Punjab are against them?

P. Chidambaram has said that farmers are voters. Similarly, migrant workers, small and medium businesses, unemployed and poor families are also voters. When their turn comes, they too will vote against the BJP like Punjab. Significantly, in six of the seven municipal corporations of Punjab, the ruling Congress has won in the state, while in the seventh municipal corporation, it has emerged as the largest party.

The Congress has cleared the opposition parties in the urban body elections. In the backdrop of the farmers' agitation against the three agricultural laws of the central government, the Congress has won a landslide victory in Bathinda, Hoshiarpur, Kapurthala, Abohar, Batala and Pathankot in the elections held in the municipal corporations in the state. Although Congress has emerged as the single largest party in Moga, it has lost six seats by a majority.
