Kin of farmers who died during anti-agri law stir yet to get compensation: Rahul Gandhi

By Smith On Nov 19, 2022

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said even though over 700 farmers died during the stir against the now-repealed agri laws, their families are yet to get any compensation as Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “reverence is only for his 2-3 friends”. “733 farmers were martyred. ‘Mafiveer’ had to bow before the power of Satyagrah. But, the intentions did not change!

“It has been one year since the black laws were withdrawn, but neither the family of any farmer who died got compensation nor any step was taken to help the farmers. Because, PM’s reverence is only for his 2-3 friends,” Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.
