CHANDIGARH: Vowing to fight again to resume "morcha" for farmers' rights, at right time, farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal, 70, on Sunday announced to end his 132-day-long fast onto death, but said he would continue leading the protest over the demands of the farmers, including a legal guarantee on the minimum support price (MSP) for crops.
Dallewal was, however, categorically clear in saying that the struggle to realise the legal right of minimum support price on crops as per C2+50 per cent would continue and for that "all need to come prepared, and for it, if needed be, they would again start the sit-in protest at appropriate time."
The announcement to end the fast that started on November 26 last year was made by the convener of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) at a Kisan Mahapanchayat organised by the BKU (Sidhupur) in Sirhind town in Fatehgarh Sahib district of Punjab, where activists of Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) gathered in strength to rally support the ongoing protests.
