RE:Dont link farmers and Gujjars
by Vinay Siddama on Jun 11, 2008 07:27 PM

The Gujjar and farmers agitatin are intrinically linked.

1. In both cases, BJP made promises with intention never to implement them. In Rajasthan, they promised Gujjars ST status. In Karnataka they fooled voters that they were a farmer's party going to the extent of swearing by their name in taking oath!

2. The Gujjar agitation has blocked road traffic. Fertilizers come from Gujarat port is blocked.

3. Both BJP governments in Rajasthan & karnataka are guilty of mishandling the problem - shooting at protestors. Shows the anti-people character of the BJP
