Is it really farmers against Govt?

Also Read

Numerous videos are being circulated on the social media where no words are left to boast of the charisma of war heroics of “Sikh”. Even in TV interviews they are in a way threatening the govt giving examples of ‘Sikh Warriors’.

As if farmers in Punjab were Sikhs only. And even if they were; why religious sentiments and emotions are raised by using religious slogans and threats. It seems the whole movement has been hijacked from farmer platform to the religious platform in an attempt to convert into religious protest sooner or later. The way all the time only one or two words are used to represent farmers rest of the dialogues are used to quote historical war events involving sikh warriors so as to threat the Govt as if it is the Sikhs vs Govt and not farmers vs Govt.

The popularly elected govt is being paralleled with moguls and Britishers. Where were these all Sikh warriors when 1984 mass massacre of Sikhs happened and when Golden Temple was attacked. Or the truth is that these all are just pawns dancing to the tunes of their commanders.

The opposition is playing a very dangerous game of fear and false narrative politics. First, an “experiment” was done on CAA. This time it is a “practical”. Far more planned and very cautiously executed and at very high level.

This time more anti national bodies are roped in to creep into the protest in the barge of religion so as to raise religious sentiments of the masses. The Govt should act now and take stern action against people who are raising religious slogans even if it has call in the army because sooner or later it is going to violence. The scavengers are waiting just for one instance or signal from the “High Commands” to turn this protest in to riots.

It is not the farmers who are against the bill but its their leaders and their commanders who are against it. Because this reform will banish their authority over the masses which is encashable commodity at the time of elections or events where they can bully the Govt. Same was reason in the case CAA and Triple Talaq and abrogation 370 etc.

The tragedy is this that poor farmers are used as shield. A sense of fear has been instilled in them so as to bring them to protests. False narratives are being spread by the congress and allies. The Kisan Union leaders are roped in to set the narratives as most of the farmers are illiterate and poor and they abide by the saying of their leaders.

The congress and its leaders are opposing this bill even though it has been formulated by its previous regimes in the past. The Modi Govt has only got it passed which was not happening because of vested interest of the Union leaders and the state politics. If this bill is implemented it will be major blow below the belt to the Kisan Union politics which play a major role in elections of the agriculture states especially in Punjab.

This is not the first time since Modi Govt into power that a reform is being opposed. Rather every reformed is opposed of which two only came to lime light that is CAA and now Farmer bill. The reason for this lime light is because here deprived and down trodden were involved on the fear of whom these political vultures has pried over the decades to remain in power and the same politics of fear and false narrative is being used to instigate to bring them to protests.

This really hurts how congress and allies are betraying the farmers by fanning these protests just to gain political mileage. If this protest go wrong it will leave a long lasting scar on the nation. Its time that Congress and allies should put stop to dirty politics.
