Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday sharpened his attack on the Modi government over controversial farm laws. Rahul Gandhi in a tweet asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reach out to the farmers and listen to their grievances.
“This happened all over Punjab yesterday. It’s sad that Punjab is feeling such anger towards PM,” he said in a tweet while referring to a media report that farmers on Sunday burnt effigies of PM Modi at several places in Punjab to lodge their protest against the farm laws.
“This is a very dangerous precedent and is bad for our country. PM should reach out, listen and give a healing touch quickly,” Rahul Gandhi said.

Farmers under the banner of the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee burnt effigies of PM Modi and business tycoons. The protesters described the three farm laws as ‘black laws’ and raised slogans against the Modi government. They demanded the withdrawal of the laws.
