AAP Government Stands with Farmers as Haryana Police Fires Tear Gas at Shambhu Border: Top Developments
AAP Government Stands with Farmers as Haryana Police Fires Tear Gas at Shambhu Border: Top Developments
On Tuesday, the farmers started their march from Punjab in the face of strict preventive measures that forbade them from crossing any state borders, including those between Delhi and Haryana or Punjab and Haryana. Barbed wire, concrete slabs, and roadside nails have all been used to obstruct the demonstrators at any cost. The Centre had asked for Bawana stadium to be turned into a makeshift jail in case the farmers entered Delhi; however, the Delhi government turned down their request. Every person has the right to peacefully protest, according to AAP minister Kailash Gahlot, who also stated that the demands of the farmers are sincere. Two hours after the demonstrators began their march, the Haryana police opened fire on them with tear gas shells as soon as they approached the border of Shambhu.
Farmers protest 2024: Here are the top developments
‘We are not blocking roads, say farmers’
Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher stated that the boundaries between Punjab and Haryana appear to be international borders rather than state borders when the farmers began their Chalo Delhi march at 10 a.m. “We still don’t state that we’re going to close off roadways. The general secretary of the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee, Pandher, stated that roads had been blocked by the government for the last two to three days.
‘Congress not with us’
According to Kisan Mazdoor Morcha, the Congress is not supporting this march through Delhi. “We view the Congress party as equally responsible as the BJP, and they do not support us.” Congress itself brought out these laws. We are raising the voice of farmers, not advocating for any one person.We are farmers and laborers; we are not on anyone’s side; the CPM and CPI, who ruled Bengal, made twenty blunders. What kind of revolution originated from there in West Bengal? We shall make an appeal to all of our people, including academics, NRI brothers, musicians from Punjab or the nation, and journalists. This is not simply a subject that affects us. Not only do we support this campaign, but 140 crore of our countrymen do as well,” Pandher remarked.
Delhi stands with farmers
In reality, the Central Government need to extend an invitation to them for discussions so that they may work out a solution to their real issues. The Delhi government declined to put Bawana Stadium in jail, writing to the Center that “farmers are our annadata and treating them in this way by arresting them would be like rubbing salt into their wounds.”

Punjab Police not stopping protesters
Punjab police also did not put an end to the demonstrators as the AAP administration in Delhi demonstrated support for the farmers who were taking to the streets.
‘Barbed wire, teargas’: Kharge attacks Modi govt
Everything is set up: barbed wire, firearms, nails, and tear gas from drones. The autocratic Modi administration is attempting to silence farmers. Mallikarjun Kharge, the president of Congress, remarked, “Recall how the farmer was defamed by being called ‘andolanjeevi’ and ‘parasite,’ and 750 farmers lost their lives.”

Swati Maliwal Assault: Kejriwal and Akhilesh Dismiss Questions; Sanjay Singh Speaks Out | Watch
Swati Maliwal Assault: Kejriwal and Akhilesh Dismiss Questions; Sanjay Singh Speaks Out | Watch
Chief Minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal and Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav addressed the media together. When Kejriwal brought up the topic of the assault on Swati Maliwal, he handed the microphone to Akhilesh. He stated, “There are more important things than this.” As for the alleged attack on Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal at Kejriwal’s residence by CM’s PA Bibhav Kumar, AAP MP Sanjay Singh has made statements about it thus far. He said he would speak on the matter and then cited Manipur, Prajwal Revanna, and the wrestlers’ protest against former chief wrestler of the Wrestling Federation of India, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.
“The prime minister said nothing while the wife of a Kargil hero was paraded in Manipur in her undies. PM Modi requested support for Prajwal Revanna, who had raped and molested many women. And the authorities assisted him in his escape. Swati Maliwal went to visit the women wrestlers during their protests at night, and the cops beat her up. Sanjay Singh remarked, “We have seen PM Modi’s silence on Hathras, Kuldeep Sengar. “The Party of Aam Aadmi is a family. The party has already made it clear where it stands on this matter. I want the BJP to respond to all of these questions, especially the incident in which the cops beat up Swati Maliwal. Politics shouldn’t be played over this, according to Sanjay Singh.

On Wednesday, Sanjay Singh visited Swati Maliwal at her home, but the BJP is pressing for action against Vibhav Kumar in this regard. Leaders of the BJP also questioned if Swati Maliwal was under pressure from the AAP, given that no formal complaint has been filed on the assault event. The picture of Bibhav Kumar seen at the Lucknow airport with Kejriwal and Sanjay Singh was released by the BJP on Thursday. “This is the image from last night of the Lucknow airport.” Vibhav, the one wearing the black shirt, struck Swati Maliwal. Kejriwal is upset, as is Sanjay Singh, who said that Bibhav has done something really wrong. BJP’s Kapil Mishra commented on X, saying, “The third one is Kejriwal himself, who is accused of getting Swati beaten up.”

Kejriwal Sparks Controversy: ‘Modi Never Ruled Out Retirement at 75,’ Amid ‘Amit Shah for PM’ Claim
Kejriwal Sparks Controversy: ‘Modi Never Ruled Out Retirement at 75,’ Amid ‘Amit Shah for PM’ Claim
Amit Shah will succeed Narendra Modi as prime minister in 2025, when the latter turns 75, according to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who announced this Thursday. The prime minister has never said he will not step down at that age. Despite the disagreements between Amit Shah and some other politicians on Kejriwal’s age and retirement, PM Modi never said he wouldn’t retire at 75, Kejriwal said at a joint press conference with Samajwadi Party chairman Akhilesh Yadav (Lucknow). “Everyone in the nation is confident that Modi won’t deviate from his 75-year retirement age,” Kejriwal stated.
“Amit Shah’s appointment as prime minister is now confirmed. According to him, the BJP has ignored every opponent, including Devendra Fadnavis, Manohar Lal Khattar, Vasundhara Raje, Dr. Raman Singh, and Shivraj Singh Chouhan. The only issue at hand is Yogi Adityanath, who would be ousted in two to three months, according to Kejriwal, who also mentioned that no BJP leader had disputed his remarks against Adityanath, suggesting that Adityanath’s departure was all but certain.
According to Kejriwal, eliminating reservations is the BJP’s “big plan” if they win the election.
During his first rally after leaving Tihar, Kejriwal stated that if he supported the BJP, Amit Shah would become prime minister since, according to party policy, no one over 75 may hold any job. Narendra Modi will turn 75 in 2025. In response to Kejriwal’s assertion, Amit Shah stated that Narendra Modi will serve out his term and continue to head the party well beyond 2029. Amit Shah charged that Kejriwal was fomenting disarray within the party about the leadership, whereas there is none.

“I would want to inform Arvind Kejriwal and associates that there is no need to celebrate Modiji’s 75th birthday. The BJP constitution does not mention his ineligibility to serve as prime minister. He will serve out the remainder of his time as prime minister. The party is not confused,” Amit Shah declared.
