👉'सरकार प्रदर्शनकारी किसानों से ऐसे निपट रहे हैं मानो वे भारत के संकटग्रस्त नागरिकों का समूह ना होकर सरकार के राजनीतिक प्रतिद्वंदी हैं !

👉'सरकार का यह रवैया किसानों को अपने अस्तित्व की रक्षा की खातिर अपना विरोध प्रदर्शन तेज करने के लिए मजबूर कर रहा है।'

👉'सरकार तथाकथित किसान नेताओं और ऐसे कागजी संगठनों के साथ समानांतर वार्ता आयोजित कर आंदोलन को तोड़ने का निरंतर प्रयास कर रही जिनका चल रहे आंदोलन से कोई संबंध नहीं है'

👉'सच यह है कि किसानों ने साफगोई से वार्ता की, पर सरकार ने इस वार्ता में तिकड़म और चालाकी का सहारा लिया है'
