Demonising farmers is difficult. They can try violence or poaching a few farmer leaders to say they’ve agreed with Modi, but difficult!

Media can’t ignore them for too long either. Tikait is now a known leader who’ll draw attention.

Old tau ji’s in villages are giving speeches everyday over hukkah explaining why the laws are bad and Modi’s crony. Can’t beat that with WhatsApp forwards!
