Jaipur: At a kisan mahapanchayat in Jaipur held on Tuesday, Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait announced a curfew to be observed on March 26 to extend support to the ongoing farmers’ protests in Delhi.“We will not spare this government which has divided the country on the lines of caste, creed, and religion. Get your tractors, you have to march to Delhi,” Tikait said in his address at the Vidhyadhar Nagar stadium in the pink city.Calling the protests a battle of ideology, Tikait said that the farmers will now sell their crop outside the Parliament.“The government told us that farmers can sell their crops anywhere. We will prove it to them by selling our produce outside assemblies, collector’s office and parliament. No mandi could be better than Parliament. Last time [on Republic Day], 3,50,000 tractors had entered Delhi, and they will do so again,” he added.Tikait was joined by All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) leader from Rajasthan Amar Ram, CPI(M) MLA from Bhadra Balwan Poonia, Bhim Army’s Chandra Shekhar Azad, Swaraj Abhiyan’s Yogendra Yadav and Tara Singh Sidhu.Also read: The Tremors of India’s Farmer Protests Are Sparking a Rumble in ChautalaIn his address, Yogendra Yadav said that this farmers’ movement has been a success. “This movement has established the self-esteem of the farmers. It has shown their political status,” he said.In the past few months, Tikait has held a handful of mahapanchayats in Rajasthan including at Hanumangarh and Sri Ganganagar districts. However, the turnout at the Jaipur mahapanchayat on Tuesday was quite low.The mahapanchayat abruptly ended due to a heavy storm and rain, which uprooted part of the mahapanchayat’s tent. An iron pole fell on one of the attendees who was immediately rushed to the nearby hospital in an ambulance. The mahapanchayat also saw the appointment of Raja Ram Meel as the president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union in Rajasthan.
