Rahul Gandhi's tractor march to Parliament

Former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi on Monday extended support to the Bharat Bandh called by the farmers who have been protesting against the Centre’s three farm laws at Delhi borders for the last 10 months.

Extending support to the farmers’ Bharat Bandh call, Gandhi used hashtag #IStandWithFarmers and tweeted that the farmers’ non-violent satyagraha is still resolute but the exploitative government does not like this and that is why a Bharat Bandh has been called.

To support farmer’s Bharat Band call, the Congress asked all its workers, state unit chiefs and heads of frontal organisations to take part in the Bandh. Not only Congress but several political parties are also showing support for the nationwide 10-hour Bandh called by farmers.

Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait on Sunday said farmers are ready to protest for 10 years, but will not allow the black legislations to be implemented.

There were no results after 11 rounds of talks between the government and the farmer unions to break the deadlock and end the farmers’ protest. They had the last meeting on January 22.  

After several rounds of talks with farmer unions, the government had offered to amend the laws but the farmers had rejected the offer black laws should be completely repealed.

Talks have not resumed following widespread violence during a tractor rally by protesting farmers on January 26.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a veiled dig at Rahul Gandhi on Thursday. He was addressing an election rally in Gujarat’s Anand where PM Modi said, Congress is dying here and Pakistanis are crying. He further added that Pakistani leaders want to make shehzada of Congress the prime minister of India.

He said everyone should look at the coincidence that today the Congress is getting weak in India and Pakistani leaders at the same time are praying for the grand old party. PM Modi said Pakistan is eager to make the prince the Prime Minister and everyone knows that the Congress is a fan of Pakistan. The prime minister further added that the partnership between Pakistan and Congress has now been completely exposed.

A few days earlier Pakistani leader Chaudhary Fawad Hussain had shared a video on X which featured Rahul Gandhi, in which the Congress leader is seen targetting the BJP and PM Modi. In the video shared by the former Pakistan minister, rahul Gandhi can be seen attacking the BJP government over the invitees at Ram Mandir’s Pran Pratishtha ceremony.

The edited video shows Rahul Gandhi speaking about the Ram Mandir’s inauguration and charging the BJP government of sidelining the interests of the poor and youth.  PM Modi further added at the Anand rally that Congress Shahzade is dancing around with the Constitution on their foreheads. But for 75 years, this did not apply to all parts of Hindustan. The Constitution was not applicable in Kashmir, where Article 370 was like a wall that the BJP government had demolished.

The Prime Minister said it is his guarantee that he will work 24×7 to make India a developed country by 2047. He pointed out that in the last 10 years, the BJP government has given tap water connections to 14 crore houses, while the Congress gave just 3 crore houses in 60 years.
