Farmers Will Protest Till Ajay Mishra Is Sacked: Tikait

Oct 14, 2021 | Pratirodh Bureau

The BKU national spokesperson also demanded an apology from those holding the farming community responsible for pollution woes

The police action against MoS Ajay Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra in the Lakhimpur Kheri violence case was a “red carpet arrest” and he was given a “bouquet” during interrogation, farmer leader Rakesh Tikait claimed on Wednesday.

In Uttar Pradesh’s Barabanki to attend a mass marriage programme, the Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader said farmer unions will continue their agitation till Ajay Mishra is sacked from the Narendra Modi Cabinet.

“Our agitation will continue till the minister is sacked. Demanding his sacking and arrest, we will hold a ‘mahapanchayat’ in Lucknow on Oct 26,” Tikait told reporters.

Asked about the protest against the Centre’s new farm laws, Tikait said, “One day this government will withdraw them. For this, if we have to agitate for 10 years, we will do so.”

On the 2022 assembly polls in UP, Tikait said the BKU will decide on a strategy after the implementation of the model code of conduct.

Eight people were killed in the Lakhimpur Kheri violence on October 3. Four of them were farmers, who were allegedly knocked down by a car carrying BJP workers travelling to welcome Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya to an event in the area.

The four others included two BJP workers, a driver of Union Minister of State for Home Ajay Kumar Mishra, and Raman Kashyap, a journalist working for a private TV channel.

While the first three were allegedly lynched by agitating farmers, the scribe, according to his father, died after being hit by a vehicle when he was covering news of the farmers’ protest against Maurya’s visit to Ajay Mishra’s native place.

Ashish Mishra, who has been named in an FIR, was arrested on Saturday.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the Uttar Pradesh Police arrested one more person in connection with the Lakhimpur Kheri violence and produced him in a court, which sent him to 14-day judicial custody. Two people moved applications for surrender at the chief judical magistrate (CJM) court.

Senior prosecution officer S.P. Yadav said they have sought 14-day police custody of Shekhar Bharti. According to a report, Bharti was driving a black Fortuner, which was behind the car that knocked down four farmers. However, police did not confirm anything about Bharti.

With Bharti’s arrest, police so far have arrested four people.

Earlier, they had arrested Union minister Ajay Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra, Luvkush and Ashish Pandey in connection with the violence, which claimed eight lives. Yadav said Bharti was produced in the court of the CJM.

In another development, two people, Ankit Das and Latif, moved an application for surrender at the CJM court. Ankit Das is stated to be a friend of Ashish and is nephew of the former minister late Akhilesh Das. The Fortuner is said to be owned by him.

Nothing is known about Latif.
