Will not support 'chakka jam': BKS

NEW DELHI: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh-affiliate Bharatiya Kisan Sangh (BKS) on Thursday said that it will not support farmer unions 'chakka jam' call given for Februar y 6 for blocking national and state highways for three hours.

Farmer unions have said that they will block the highways in protest against the internet ban in areas near their agitation sites, harassment allegedly meted out to them by authorities, and against three farm laws.

"Now, the protest at all the borders of Delhi is ver y much political and it is clearly visible that this has become political propaganda," BKS General Seceratery Badri Narayan Choudhary told ANI. "Earlier the Canadian political leaders supported the farmers' protests, then British leaders and now celebrities from other countries. It proves that this is propaganda against India and they will damage the peace and harmony of the country," he said.
