Rakesh Tikait, spokesperson of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), on Friday alleged that the Uttarakhand Police has lost control over criminal activities in the state.
Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait was allegedly attacked by some unidentified miscreants during a protest rally on Friday against the Pahalgam terror incident.
Bhartiya Kisan Union(BKU) national spokesperson Rakesh Tikait has stated that he was trying for a truce between warring former BJP legislator Kunwar Pranav Singh Champion and his successor sitting MLA Umesh Kumar in Haridwar.
BKU spokesperson Rajesh Tikait said, "First in 2008, then in 2021 and at present also the situation is similar. We will not shy away from getting shot in the chest."
Union Minister Ajay Mishra Teni, who is facing backlash over his son's alleged involvement in the Lakhimpur Kheri violence calls farmer leader Rakesh Tikait a "Do Kaudi Ka Aadmi" in a video shared on microblogging sites.
Tractors more than 10 years are being stopped. BKU is fighting against such harassments. Tikait added.
Tikait was attending a press conference on "Raita Chaluvali, Aatmavalokana haagu Spasteekarana Sabha (Farmer's Movement, Introspection and Clarification Meeting)" organised by Karnataka State Farmers Association and Hasiru Sene.
The police are going through the call details record of the number which was used to threaten the leader.
His statement comes days after the Centre repealed the three agricultural laws against which several farmers' unions had been protesting for nearly a year.
Tikait rubbished the view that MSP for several farm produce will put a huge burden on the government exchequer.
