Punjab min Arora accuses SAD for blatantly ignoring interests of peasantry

Hoshiarpur, Sep 18 (UNI) Asserting that state government will stand by the farmers, Punjab Industries and Commerce Minister Sunder Sham Arora on Friday accused the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) for blatantly ignoring the interests of state’s peasantry besides terming the resignation of Harsimrat Kaur Badal from Union Cabinet as a ‘political stunt’.
Reiterating Punjab Government’s resolve to safeguard the interests of farmers at all costs, Arora said village and district level protests against the farm-ordinances would be staged across the state on Monday.
Interacting with the journalists after the Virtual Kisan Mela presided over by Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh, the Minister said Akali Dal, which always pretended itself as ‘saviour of farmers and farming’, was a party of opportunists.
