Farmers body calls for Bharat Bandh on June 10

New Delhi: The Rastriya Kisan Mahasangh (RKM) has called for a Bharat Bandh on June 10 to mark their 'Gaon Bandh Andolan' which was called for June 1 to 10. The Farmers body had taken the decision after the central government refused to heed their plea.

Meanwhile, the Punjab farmer unions have decided not to take part in the Bharat Bandh since they had already declared the end-date of their strike. 'Farmers are also seeking the support of the trader's union for the strike', said PT John, Kisan Mahasangh State coordinator.
