Panchkula, December 23
Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar addressed the media regarding Kisan leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal’s ongoing fast-unto-death. Jakhar stated that nobody has requested Dallewal to end his fast, and the Kisan outfits, along with politicians, seem less concerned about his health.
Jakhar emphasized that Dallewal’s life is being jeopardized. He also noted that it is significant that the Supreme Court has shown concern about Dallewal’s health.
Jakhar urged all farmer leaders of the SKM (non-political) to immediately approach the Supreme Court, as their objective of pressuring the Centre has already been accomplished.He mentioned that he would also attempt to convince Dallewal, but everyone must move in this direction, as his life is at risk.
Targeting the politicians who recently met Dallewal at the Khanauri border, Jakhar criticized them for merely clicking photos with him and failing to try and convince him. He also pointed out that no leader has raised this issue in Parliament.
