By: Shree1news, 13 DEC 2020

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Sunday slammed the Central government and alleged that some of its Ministers had alluded to the presence of “separatist” elements in ongoing farmers’ protest against the agriculture reforms.
“Ministers have described the protesters against the Farm Laws as Khalistanis; agents of Pakistan and China; Maoists; and, the latest, tukde tukde gang,” the Congress leader tweeted.

“If you exhaust all these categories, it means there are no farmers among the thousands of protesters. If there aren’t any farmers, why is the government speaking to them?” he requested in a subsequent tweet.
