KARNAL: Rakesh Tikait, leader of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha, on Monday appealed to the farmer leaders across the country to unite under one banner in support of the ongoing agitation at the Shambhu border, demanding a legal guarantee on minimum support price (MSP) for crops. "Batoge toh lutoge (would be looted if not united)," he said as he expressed concern over the "deteriorating" health of Jagjit Singh Dallewal, the president of Bhartiya Kisan Union (Ekta Sidhupur), who has been on a fast-unto-death at the Khanauri border point in support of farmers' demands, including MSP.
Tikait also hit out at the central government for not accepting the farmers' demands and said it (Centre) was benefiting out of the agitation as people in Punjab were getting angry at Bhawant Mann-led state government.
