Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's upcoming visit to poll-bound Punjab, a group of 23 farmer unions under the Sanyukt Kisan Morcha said that they would hold statewide protests against the BJP's "unfulfilled promises," reported The Indian Express.
The call for the protest made by farmer unions that have decided not to contest the Punjab polls has irked the BJP, which has decided to approach the Election Commission over the same.
Apart from planning on "burning effigies "of the PM, the protesting farmers also intend to raise black flags at his cavalcade.
