Dear Editor, The protest held by thousands of farmers and agricultural workers in national capital Delhi, actually resulted from government’s negligence and apathy towards core issues of farmers. It was claimed repeatedly by BJP that its period of ruling will be considered as the government of poor and farmers but the results are entirely contrary to all the claims. This protest just before the the general elections of 2019, is not good sign for BJP to claim as a strong party in the list. So the government must meet the farmer’s needs and demands as soon as it can. Now it is time the BJP should realise that the people are losing their faith in the party and take a lesson that mere rhetoric and blame game will not work any more. Action is the need of hour.
