  • 3 years ago
All India Farmers’ Protest Coordination Committee (AIFPCC), Tamil Nadu, on December 29 declared that protests against the three new farm laws would continue until they were repealed. P Shanmugam State general secretary, Tamil Nadu Vivasayigal Sangam, affiliated to CPI(M) & K Balakrishnan, State Coordinator, AIFPCC, Tamil Nadu, jointly said the Centre’s strategy of explaining the farm laws in order to dilute the resoluteness of agitating farmers near Delhi would not work. State unit of AIFPCC would organise protests against the farm laws in all district headquarters in Tamil Nadu until they were withdrawn, the two members said if the Centre does not repeal the laws. They urged CM Edappadi K Palaniswami to clarify on what grounds his government supported the laws. Meanwhile, a massive rally was held in Tanjore, Tamil Nadu in support of the farmers. Pondicherry Villianur AIKS & AIAWU unit also organised a protest demanding justice. A massive rally was also organised in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu.
