Farmers in large number protested registration of cases against them outside the Co-operative Bank on Monday. They also held a meeting to discuss their 10-day protest beginning from June 1.
The protesters said, “Before coming to power, the Congress had announced to waive farm debt, which never happened. It claimed that it had waived Rs 2 lakh, benefits of which never reached any farmer. Now, the bank is filing complaints on the basis of blank cheques given by farmers at the time of availing loan.”
The farmers handed over a memorandum to the bank officials.
