Kisan Sangharsh Jatha Concludes in a Huge Rally

The three week long Kisan Sangharsh Jatha, organised by the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), concluded in a huge public rally in New Delhi on November 24, 2016. The jatha originated from four different destinations in India – Jammu, Kolkata, Virudhunagar and Kanyakumari. Each jatha led by their leaders – Amra Ram, Hannan Mollah, Vijoo Krishnan and P Krishnaprasad respectively – travelled a cumulative distance of 25,000 km covering almost all regions of the country. The deepening agrarian crisis in India, exacerbated by the neo-liberal, anti-farmer policies of the present BJP government provided the immediate backdrop to these jathas.
