PATIALA: Extending support to the farmers, a Punjab government delegation led by state unit chief and minister Aman Arora on Wednesday met fasting veteran farm leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal at Khanauri and urged him to take medical treatment saying that his health is "important".
The 67-year-old has been sitting on fast since November 26 to put pressure on the Centre to accept the farmers' demands, including legal guarantee for minimum support price (MSP).
The delegation comprised ministers Gurmeet Singh Khudian, Dr Balbir Singh, Barinder Kumar Goyal, Hardeep Singh Mundian, Tarunpreet Singh Sond, Laljit Singh Bhullar and party's state unit working president Amansher Singh Sherry Kalsi, among others.
Requesting Dallewal to take Intravenous (IV) fluids to avoid damage to his vital organs, Arora assured Dallewal that the entire Punjab government and their party were with him in that fight.
"The fight is not only yours, but that of the whole Punjab and will only continue if the leader survives. You have been fasting for 30 days. Therefore, I humbly request you, with folded hands, to take at least IV fluids to save your life, and continue your fast-unto-death," Aman Arora told Dallewal.
