Farmers in Mysuru staged a protest on Thursday and demonstrated against the police action in which one person was killed on the Haryana border on Wednesday during the ongoing ‘Delhi Chalo’ agitation.
The deceased was a farmer taking part in the agitation against the Centre and the members of Sugarcane Cultivators’ Association and other organisations in the city performed a mock funeral of the Union government.
The farmers took out a procession from Gun House circle and raised slogans against the Narendra Modi government for not meeting their demands of a law mandating Minimum Support Price for all agricultural crops besides higher procure price based on Swaminathan Committee’s recommendations.
