Patidar quota stir leader Hardik Patel was arrested today in Madhya Pradesh's Neemuch district when he was on his way to Mandsaur to express his solidarity with the agitating farmers, six of whom were killed in police firing last week.
Patel was accompanied by Akhil Bharatiya Kisan Sabha General Secretary Hannan Mollah. "The farmers gave their lives for their rights. It will not go waste. Hardik will meet farmers and will ask them to continue their protest," Patidar Navnirman Sena General Secretary Akhilesh Katiyar told IANS on Monday.
Farmers' protests, that started in the state on June 1 for better prices for their produce and debt relief, turned violent on June 6 when six farmers were killed in police firing in Mandsaur.
The violence spilled over to several other districts, including the Malwa-Nimad area and even reached the state capital. Angry farmers blocked roads, vandalised property and set fire to vehicles.
After the farmers' killing, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has ordered a judicial probe.
