Farmers have power to change governments: CM KCR in Punjab

Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao expressed solidarity with the protesting farmers and said that the farmers can overturn governments. The Telangana CM was in Chandigarh to meet the bereaved families of farmers who died during the "fight for farmers’ rights" against the Centre.

Talking about the farmers' agitation against the Centre's three farm laws, KCR said, “Protesting farmers were termed Khalistani, terrorists. My only request to farmers' leaders is that we should continue this protest, not just in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and UP, but across the country. Farmers can change



governments if they want.”

On Sunday, CM K Chandrashekar Rao and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, along with Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, paid tributes to the martyrs of the Galwan Valley clash against the Chinese troops and the farmers who died during the anti-farm law stir last year, in Chandigarh.

“Before Telangana became state, a lot of farmer issues persisted. Farmers were dying by suicide. We are improving, giving farmers free electricity. Centre asking us to impose electricity bills, put meters. We would die but not install meters,” Telangana CM KCR said.
