Karnal, March 13
Scores of farmers today opposed the visit of Nilokheri legislator Dharampal Gonder to Nissing Gaushala, where he was scheduled to chair a programme. They said the MLA had betrayed farmers by voting against the no-confidence motion in the Assembly on Wednesday.
Farmers called off the protest after the event organisers had assured them that Gonder would not attend the event.
Gonder is an Independent MLA who supports the Khattar government. He is the chairman of the Haryana Forest Development Corporation.
The protesters said the BJP had denied ticket to Gonder in the last Assembly elections, but he still won the elections as an Independent candidate on the back farmers’ support.
Gonder said he had to skip the event because he had a meeting with the CM. — TNS
