He said it should be ascertained as to who stopped a section of farmers from approaching his residence when he had repeatedly requested the Muktsar police to let all farmers meet him. He said it should also be ascertained as to who committed high handedness against the farmers and due action should be taken against the police personnel responsible for this.

He said there was no need to register such cases as it would only lead to harassment of farmers over a long period of time. “I request the SSP, Muktsar to withdraw the case against the farmers or else the SAD would be constrained to hold a dharna in front of his office to get the cases withdrawn”. -PTC News-
