Cabinet minister Vijay Singla conducts meeting at residence of Arhtiya Association president in Makhu
Commission agents and farmers are knit in brotherhood, says Singla
Ferozepur, December 19, 2020: The Union government is using all kinds of tactics to abate ongoing Kisan Andolan and the raid of Income Tax at house of Commission Agent President Vijay Kalra is a part of vendetta politics.
The education minister Government of Punjab Vijay Inder Singla said this while interacting with media at the residence of president Vijay Kalra.
He added that the income tax raids were being conducted on various commission agents of Punjab since Friday. He added that the farmers and commission agents have lived together in brotherhood for the past many ages.
He said that two buses full of CRPF Jawan raided the house of Vijay Kalra along with the team of Income Tax Department. Similarly, at Patiala the house of district Patiala President Rajendra Rana, also witnessed raids by Income Tax Department with the CRPF jawans in tow. The raids were conducted at the residence of Samana commission agent Association president Pawan Bansal and that of Nawanshahr Association president Bittu.
Cabinet minister said that when the Chief Minister Captain Amrinder Singh and Congress party raised voice against the cancellation of faulty 3-Farm Laws, the enforcement department sends notices to the CM and register cases against him and his family members. After this, when Union Minister talked to the farmers on the issues, the work was started on dividing the farmers in a bid to rule on them. Now when the central government has not been able to abate the Kisan Andolan, it has started conducting raids on presidents of commission agents across Punjab and by using CRPF forces it is trying to intimidate.
