Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Tuesday cautioned the farmers against elements that could try to take advantage of their agitation and spoil the peaceful atmosphere of the State. Congratulating the farmers for ensuring peace during the Bharat Bandh, just as they had maintained peace throughout their over two-month long protests, the Chief Minister warned that during agitations and similar situations, some people with no genuine concern about the cause of the protestors, try to take advantage for their own petty gains by disturbing the peaceful environment. Capt Amarinder, in a Facebook Live message, expressed happiness that the bandh was completely peaceful in Punjab, and appreciated the farmers for exercising their democratic right of protest peacefully. Even when they blocked railway tracks in Punjab, there was no violence, he pointed out. The CM, while urging the Centre to understand the pain of the farmers, hoped that the deadlock over the farm laws, for which talks are currently in progress, is resolved soon. “Punjab’s farmers have been at the forefront of the agitation, which has been going on for long,” he pointed out, adding that with the weather getting colder, it was important for the Government of India to find a solution so that the farmers could go back home.
