Jagjit Singh Dallewal’s Hunger Strike: A 26-Day Fight for Farmers’ Rights
Jagjit Singh Dallewal, a prominent farmer leader, has now completed 26 days of his hunger strike to demand justice and rights for India’s farmers. Dallewal’s strike is a courageous act of resistance against the government’s unyielding stance on critical issues like the Minimum Support Price (MSP) guarantee and justice for farmers affected by state violence, including the Lakhimpur Kheri incident.
Despite his deteriorating health, as seen in the monitoring of his vitals, Dallewal remains resolute in his mission. His protest highlights the enduring spirit of the farmer community and their willingness to sacrifice for the betterment of future generations.
The government’s indifference to the farmers’ demands is a stark reminder of the continued struggle for equality and justice in India. The movement underscores the urgency of addressing farmers’ grievances and implementing policies that prioritize their welfare.
Dallewal’s hunger strike is not just a call for justice but a symbol of the unbreakable spirit of those who fight for their rights, even in the face of adversity.
