NDA ally RLP opposes farm Bills, Hanuman Beniwal says Centre should withdraw new farm laws
Jaipur, Nov 26: Rashtriya Loktantrik Party (RLP) convenor and Nagaur MP Hanuman Beniwal on Thursday said the Centre should listen to the farmers' issues and withdraw the recently passed farm laws.
The RLP is an ally of the ruling NDA government at the Centre. It had contested the last election in Rajasthan in alliance with the BJP.
"The central government needs to take back the agricultural bills after hearing the issues of farmers coming to Delhi to protest against the agricultural bills," Beniwal said in a tweet.
He further said, "Governments of nearby states including Haryana should not adopt any oppressive policy against farmers. If the police and governments adopted oppressive policy against farmers, the RLP will hold demonstrations across the country, including in Rajasthan, in favour of farmers."
Beniwal said the Centre also needs to implement all the recommendations of the Swaminathan Commission for the benefit of farmers.
केंद्र सरकार को कृषि बिलो के विरोध में अपनी बात रखने दिल्ली आ रहे किसानों की बात को सुनकर कृषि बिलों को वापिस लेने की जरूरत है,हरियाणा सहित आस-पास के राज्यो की सरकारें किसानों पर कोई दमनकारी नीति नही अपनाएं

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
