TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ The Shiv Sena today warned its ally BJP to take lessons from the ongoing farmers’ strike in Maharashtra and cede to their demands or else the “lava of farmers’ pain” will create havoc for it.
The Sena also claimed that the government was mulling to close down Internet services in Nashik and asked if it compares “Nashik with unpeaceful Kashmir and protesting farmers with the anti-nationals who throw stones at the Army”.
“The fire of farmers anguish cannot be doused merely by making promises. Monday’s Maharashtra bandh was a challenge to the government. If appropriate lessons are not learnt by the government, the lava of farmers’ pain will create havoc for it,” the Sena said in an editorial in party mouthpiece ‘Saamana’.
The Sena said that this is only a beginning of the fight for farmers’ rights and that this stir would go on till the last of demands are met by the government. It added that the Sena will continue to support the strike till the end.
