Gurugram, Nov 28 (TIWN) Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Saturday thanked the farmers of the state for not participating in the demonstration against the three contentious agricultural laws passed by the Centre in September.
Khattar was in the city to head a meeting of the District Public Relations and Public Prevention Committee. The CM alleged that the farmers' protest is mainly sponsored by the political parties of Punjab and some other organizations there. Khattar added that during the past three days he wanted to discuss with his Punjab counterpart Captain Amarinder Singh about the farmers' movement but the latter did not respond to his phone calls. He said that he himself could not understand the exact reason behind this ignorance on the part of the Punjab Chief Minister.
