Most SKM members were so far avoiding protests by Dallewal & Sarwan Singh Pandher's Kisan Mazdoor Morcha. Move comes after SKM concluded ‘lack of unity was hurting talks with Centre’.
The Jagjit Singh Dallewal-led agitation for ‘legal MSP’ is a pale shadow of the 2020-21 movement against new farm laws. MSP may not be as salient today as it once was.
The Punjab govt tells Supreme Court that Dallewal would accept medical aid if Centre holds talks with farmers. It is under pressure to intervene & 'save' Dallewal’s life.
DMK govt accuses Centre of withholding funds, tightening borrowing, unilateral deductions from state accounts. Says Centre's accounting & funding decisions have 'artificially inflated' debt burden.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
