Centre open to talks, Amarinder misleading farmers: BJP
Chandigarh, March 6, 2021: Punjab BJP president Ashwani Sharma today said that the Amarinder Singh government instead of helping find resolution to the farmers' protest was taking instigative steps to keep the pot boiling in Punjab.
Reacting to the Vidhan Sabha resolution on farmers adopted today Sharma said the chief minister, by brining such resolutions time and again, was misleading farmers and instead of helping the Centre resolve the differences with farmers was trying to complicate the issue and create a wrong impression.
"This has led to creating a disturbing law and order situation in the state and has brought the state on the edge", said Sharma. He said after having failed to do anything to improve the plight of farmers in Punjab, the Amarinder government was supporting and instigating farmers' protest.
Sharma said the Amarinder government had been instigating farmers against the bills right from day one and has lent support to the disruptive elements in the garb of supporting farmers.
The BJP leader suggested the chief minister to work for the development of Punjab instead of creating an unnecessarily disturbing law and order situation to spread fear and terror in the state.
