Mysore/Mysuru: Contending that the Government had failed to attend to the problems of farmers in the State, members of Samuhika Nayakatvada Raitha Sangha and Hasiru Sene will be wearing black bands on their wrists and holding a protest march from Deputy Commissioner’s Office to City Court premises on Aug. 15.
Disclosing this at a press meet held at Leela Chennaiah Kalyanamantap on Valmiki Road at Paduvarahalli this morning, Raitha Sangha State Core Committee Member Manju Kiran said, “As a protest against the Government’s move to amend the Karnataka Land Reforms Act and others related issues, farmers will be observing a ‘black day’ on Aug. 15. We would like to strongly condemn the statement given by ruling BJP Ministers that our protests are sponsored by Opposition parties. The administration is testing our patience, but we will continue our agitation against this shameless Government.”
