New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said he will hold one day fast tomorrow in support of farmers protest. Speaking to the media persons on Sunday he appealed to AAP volunteers to join in the farmers protest on Monday.

He also said Centre should immediately accept all demands of farmers protesting the laws and bring a bill to guarantee MSP (minimum support price)”. Kejriwal said “Thousands of people support the farmers in their struggle. I appeal to everyone to fast for one day to show their solidarity. These new laws are harmful for the country.

They decriminalize profiteering and hoarding. They will help prices go up,” he said. Thousands of farmers have been camping on the outskirts of Delhi since late November demanding the government repeal the laws that they say will eventually dismantle the country’s regulated markets and leave them at the mercy of private buyers.
