Jammu, Dec 25 (UNI) Refuting the false rumours that the farmers will lose the ownership of their land, Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Friday said it were the farm grabbers, not the farmers, who may lose the land, which has been illegitimately taken away from the farmers.
Participating in a special programme of Kisan Samman Nidhi, digitally addressed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Panchayat Nagrota in Block Barnoti, Dr Singh said that even in Kathua district, misgivings were sought to be spread that the ownership and registry papers of the farmers will be cancelled, as per the new law.
These misgivings and lies were being spread precisely by those, who have over the years, illegally or forcibly taken away the land from innocent farmers and built their mansions or commercial establishments on it, he alleged.
