Bengaluru, April 23: Farmers of Karnataka are running a pan-India campaign to defeat the ‘liar’ prime minister who has been lying to the farmers for many years. Addressing the media persons in Chikmagalur, the state president of Karnataka Farmers Association B. Nagendra said the farmers are going door to door, asking the voters to defeat the ‘fascist party’ at any cost.
Releasing their flier, the honorary president of the association Chamrasa Malepatil said since Narendra Modi became prime minister, he has been telling lies to the farmers. Hence, they have decided to defeat even the allied parties in the NDA.
Samyukta Kisan Morcha, comprising 540 associations of farmers, includes Karnataka Farmers Association and Sarvodaya Karnataka. In the first meeting with the farmers, Narendra Modi had promised to implement recommendations of the Swaminathan Report and wave off the farmers’ loans and implement the minimum support price, but even after ten years he has not fulfilled the promises, he said.
Instead of waving off farmers’ loans, the Modi government has waved off the corporate loans worth 14 lakh crores, said Malepatil. Modi has to pay the price for this deceit, he added.
