‘Book Babli for charges levelled against farmers’

Chandigarh: Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) leader and former Ellenabad MLA Abhay Singh Chautala on Friday said police should have booked Tohana MLA Devender Singh Babli for the same charges for which farmers have been booked by Tohana police.

“Earlier, Babli had tried to garner sympathy from farmers in the state legislative assembly, but now his stand has exposed him: that his statements were only to get sympathy for farmers and he has nothing to do with the farmers’ interest. Babli has tried to set the entire state on fire,” said Abhay, who was in Chandigarh. Abhay, who had resigned from the state assembly over the Centre’s farm laws, also accused the Centre of not holding elections in Ellenabad seat under the guise of lockdown. “They know that anyone who contests on the party symbol of BJP alliance will lose the security deposit, so no one will be ready to contest elections,” he added.
