Tikait a ‘dacoit’, farmers’ protest receiving foreign funds: UP BJP MP

Speaking to reporters here on Sunday on the completion of BJP’s four-and-half-years of being in power in the state, Gond said, “(Rakesh) Tikait is a dacoit. There is no agitation by farmers. The protestors are not farmers, they are people from political parties who are motivated by ‘Sikhistan’ and Pakistan.”

“Money is coming from foreign countries including Canada. This money is for terror funding and agencies are probing it,” he added.

Gond said people know the reality of the protesters.

“If the real farmers were protesting, then there would have been a shortage of food items. Vegetables, milk, foodgrains, and fruits would not have reached the markets,” he said.
