‘About 750 farmers died in the farm movement…There was no condolence from Government of India. Country’s farmers feel that perhaps PM Modi is not ‘farmers’ PM’. He consider them (farmers) as separate from the country’, Tikait was quoted by ANI. He also warned that the Centre saying that if the administration pulls down farmers’ tents at protest sites, they will set tents at police stations and District Magistrate’s offices. Last month, the Delhi Police had started removing barricades placed at the Tikri and Ghazipur borders where farmers were protesting against the Centre’s three farm laws.
