Lucknow: Bahujan Samaj Party (SP) chief Mayawati on Saturday said that oppression of farmers under the guise of pollution caused by stubble burning is "extremely condemnable" and urging the state government to provide necessary help to them before taking any action in this matter.
"Atrocities on farmers, especially under the guise of pollution due to the burning of stubble, are extremely condemnable due to the pollution spread in Uttar Pradesh. Before taking any action in this matter, the government also needs to give them conscious and necessary help. This is the demand of BSP," Mayawati tweeted in Hindi.
यू.पी. में फैले प्रदूषण को लेकर खासकर यहाँ पराली जलाने की आड़ में किसानों के साथ हो रही जुल्म-ज्यादती अति निन्दनीय। जबकि इस मामले में सरकार को कोई भी कार्यवाही करने से पहले, उन्हें जागरूक व जरूरी सहायता देने की भी जरूरत। बी.एस.पी.की यह मांग।
