BKU Charuni Organizes Statewide Protest Against India-US Trade Agreement
A crucial state-level meeting of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Charuni) convened on Saturday at the Jaat Dharamshala in Kurukshetra. The gathering was presided over by the union's prominent leader, Gurnam Singh Charuni, who chaired the discussions aimed at addressing pressing farmer concerns.
Detailed Deliberations on Trade Deal Opposition
During the meeting, union leaders engaged in extensive deliberations regarding the trade deal between India and the United States, which the BKU Charuni vehemently opposes. The discussions centered on formulating a comprehensive roadmap for a statewide agitation against this agreement. Strategies were meticulously planned to tackle not only the trade deal but also several other public and farmer-related issues affecting the agricultural community.
Preparations for Major Rally on March 23, 2026
A significant focus of the meeting was on the preparations for a large-scale rally scheduled to take place on March 23, 2026, at the Anaj Mandi in Pipli. To ensure the success of this event, office-bearers and workers were assigned specific responsibilities. The union emphasized that this rally will be a pivotal moment in their movement, with detailed logistical and organizational plans put in place.
Protest Actions and Government Warnings
Following the conclusion of the meeting, union leaders and workers staged a dramatic protest against the India-USA trade deal. They burned copies of the agreement at public intersections in Kurukshetra, symbolizing their strong dissent. The BKU Charuni issued a stern warning to the government, stating that if the trade deal is not withdrawn, the rally on March 23 will determine the future course and strategic direction of the farmers' movement.
Key Leaders in Attendance
Prominent leaders present at the meeting included BKU Charuni state executive member Karam Singh Mathana and media in-charge Rakesh Kumar Bains. Their participation underscored the union's coordinated efforts and commitment to mobilizing support against the trade agreement and other agricultural policies.
