NCP Chief Sharad Pawar on the tractor rally in Delhi: Nobody will support whatever happened today but the reason behind it cannot be ignored either. Those sitting calmly grew angry, the Centre didn't fulfill its responsibility. Govt should act maturely and take the right decision.
He added, "Farmers from Punjab, Haryana, western Uttar Pradesh held a protest in a disciplined manner but govt didn't take them seriously. As restraint ended, the tractor march was taken out. Centre's responsibility was to keep law & order in control but they failed." (ANI inputs)
Delhi Police Commissioner SN Shrivastava tells ANI: The time and the routes for the tractor rally were finalised after several rounds of meetings. But farmers drove tractors off the routes and before the fixed time, leading to vandalism in which many police personnel were injured. Public properties have also been damaged. I appeal to the protesting farmers not to indulge in violence, maintain peace and return through the designated routes.
Samyukta Kisan Morcha: We dissociate ourselves from all such elements that have violated our discipline: Samyukta Kisan Morcha on clashes during farmers' protest. Antisocial elements infiltrated our otherwise peaceful movement: Samyukta Kisan Morcha on farmers' agitation turning violent. We condemn and regret undesirable and unacceptable events that have taken place today during farmers' protest: Samyukta Kisan Morcha. We thank farmers for unprecedented participation in 'Farmers' Republic Day Parade'.
