Chandigarh, Sep 22 (UNI) Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee has lodged a strong protest with Haryana Chief Minister for blocking passage to a farmers’ rally that was organised by the Punjab Youth Congress (PYC) on September 20.
In a letter given to Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Tuesday, Punjab Congress chief Sunil Jakhar said that PYC had announced the protest for September 20 against the anti-farmer laws brought by the central government.
Under this, he said, a tractor rally of protesters started from Punjab, the same was to reach Delhi passing through Haryana to raise its voice. But it was a matter of great regret and sadness that the Haryana Government did not allow the Youth Congress workers to go to the capital of the country by stopping the same at the Ambala border in a very undemocratic manner, he added.
