New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will on Thursday, lead a protest against the farm laws. He will later meet President Ram Nath Kovind along with a delegation to submit around 20 million signatures collected from across the country over the last three months seeking repeal of the legislation, Hindustan Times (HT) reported.
“After the protest, he and other senior leaders will meet the President and submit a memorandum with 2 crore signatures seeking his intervention,” Congress leader K Suresh was quoted as saying in HT.
The Congress launched a nationwide campaign in September for collecting appeals of farmers, farm labourers, and other stakeholders addressed to Kovind for repealing the laws.
“The government has chosen to brazenly defame, discredit and eventually tire out the lakhs of protesting farmers. The Modi government and its ministers have chosen to insult them,” Congress leader KC Venugopal said in a statement on Tuesday.
