News Desk: West Bengal chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday vowed to continue her fight for the rights of the farmers, remembering how her party’s struggle in Singur brought about a positive change in the lives of the farmers. Banerjee has been raising her voice and supporting farmers’ protest against three farm laws passed by Parliament in September last year.
“On this day, ten years back, the Singur Land Rehabilitation and Development Bill 2011 was passed in the WB assembly after a long & difficult struggle. We unitedly fought for the rights of our farmers & addressed their grievances, bringing in positive change in their lives,” Mamata Banerjee said on Twitter.
“Today, it pains me that across the nation our farmer brethren are suffering owing to the indifference of the Centre. Together, we shall continue our fight to ensure the well-being of the very backbone of our society. Upholding their rights remains a top priority,” she added in follow-up tweet.
