Tractor rally violence in Delhi: Farmer leader VM Singh withdraws support from protests

The move has come after the mayhem that the national capital underwent on Tuesday during the tractor parade on the occasion of Republic Day.

Launching a scathing attack against Rakesh Tikait, VM Singh, All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee said,"We can't carry forward a protest with someone whose direction is something else. So, I wish them the best but VM Singh and All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee are withdrawing from this protest right away".

''I have nothing to do with the protest which is being led by them and over here being represented by Rakesh Tikait on their behalf,'' he further said.

Another union Bharatiya Kisan Union (Bhanu) which was a participant in the ongoing protest has also withdrawn their support on Wednesday. "I am deeply pained by whatever happened in Delhi yesterday and ending our 58-day protest," Thakur Bhanu Pratap Singh, president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Bhanu) at Chilla border, said.
