Sirsa (Haryana): Farmer leader Rakesh Tikait, who has been leading the ongoing farmers' protest against the three agricultural laws, has targeted the BJP and the central government on Wednesday. Addressing the farmers' conference in Sirsa, Tikait said that there is no party more dangerous than the BJP.

Tikait further added that a Hindu leader will be murdered before the UP elections. BJP wants to win the Uttar Pradesh elections by taking advantage of the Hindu-Muslim conflict in the state.

Tikait said that country has been occupied by the "government Taliban." "If the government terms us as Khalistani supporters, we will call the government as Taliban," he said.

On Prime Minister Narendra Modi's promise that the income of the farmers would double by 2022, Tikait said "this did not happen and neither the crops were sold at double the rate". He questioned the government policies and said that the big companies of the country get the loans and buy the government institutions.

Tikait also slammed the government for also selling its institutions and assets to the private sector. He warned the government that the farmers' protest will continue till the three agriculture laws are repealed and make a law on MSP.
