Chugh demands immediate scrapping of land pooling scheme
AAP govt looting farmers to help Delhi realtors
Chandigarh 30 July ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh today demanded immediate scrapping of the land pooling scheme and said the BJP will launch a state-wide agitation to protect the interests of farmer, Chugh said the Modi government is committed to protect the farmers adding that the a "state-sponsored conspiracy to loot the farmers' land in the name of development to help realtors would never be accepted. Chugh, who personally met Punjab’s farmers and submitted their memorandum to the Hon’ble Governor, said, “This is not a policy, it’s a betrayal. Farmers know exactly what this scheme is, an official tool to snatch their ancestral lands. Let the Mann government hear this loud and clear: we will not let them grab even an inch of Punjab’s farmland.” Exposing the hypocrisy of the Bhagwant Mann government, Chugh added, “No promise has reached the ground. Loans haven’t been waived. Jobs haven’t reached the youth. MSP guarantees are missing. All that’s flourishing under AAP is lawlessness, corruption, and false promises.” He further said that the land of Punjab’s farmers is sacred, like a mother, and any attempt to forcibly acquire it without consent is nothing short of dacoity. “This is not development. This is coercion under the garb of progress. We will fight this battle on the streets, in the courts, and among the people. Punjab will not be handed over to land sharks and political contractors,” Chugh said. He accused the Bhagwant Mann government of acting like middlemen for real estate mafias, betraying the very farmers who voted for change but were delivered betrayal.
