Chandigarh: Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh today embarked on three-day ‘Kisan Bus Yatra’, which will cover over 500 km in seven districts, with a vow to “punish” Badals for allegedly pushing the state’s farmers to suicide.
The yatra was flagged off by the widows of nine debt-ridden farmers who committed suicide. Some of the women lost both their husband and son to the vicious cycle of mounting debt, a Punjab Congress spokesperson claimed.
The yatra will cover the districts of Faridkot, Ludhiana, Bathinda, Muktsar, Jalalabad and Ferozepur.
Amarinder is expected to be joined by several senior party leaders on different stretches along the route, which will be dotted by Kisan sabhas and Mandi meetings, in addition to road shows.
