News Daily Digital Desk: Farmers’ long march incident in Maharashtra. A protesting farmer died due to illness. It is also reported that several farmers have fallen ill.
In fact, thousands of farmers and Dalits started a mass movement against the BJP government in Maharashtra a few days ago. Under the banner of All India Kishan Sabha, the farmers’ organization of CPM, the farmers started marching from Nashik to Mumbai with a total of 17 points. The movement of farmers became so big that the government was forced to come down in a hurry. Under pressure, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde held talks with the farmers. Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadanbis met with the farmers’ delegation on Thursday. Rafasutra came out in that meeting. The farmers decided to call off the march and wait at the Maharashtra border until the government order comes into effect.

However, he was discharged from the hospital as he felt somewhat better after the initial treatment. After having dinner, the farmer felt sick again. He died at night. The opposition is naturally blaming the government for the farmer’s death during the agitation.
