Farmer Leader Dallewal Arrested at Home

Punjab : In a dramatic turn of events, farmer leader Jagjit Dallewal was arrested at his residence by the Punjab police early in the morning at 4 AM. Dallewal, who has been a prominent figure in the ongoing farmers’ movement, was reportedly surrounded by police forces as they took action against him. In a statement following his arrest, Dallewal expressed that he was unable to move due to health issues, but the government seemed to be intimidated by his influence.

According to the farmer leader, despite his inability to walk and the fact that he had made no attempt to flee, the government had opted to take extreme measures. The arrest was seen by many as an attempt to suppress the farmers’ ongoing protests and leadership, with Dallewal himself claiming that the government’s actions reflected its fear of the growing resistance.

Dallewal, who has been at the forefront of organizing farmer protests and pushing for agricultural reforms, has been vocal about his opposition to the government’s policies. His arrest has sparked widespread condemnation from farmer groups and opposition leaders, who have labeled the move as an attempt to silence dissent. Many supporters have taken to social media to express their anger, and protests are expected in several parts of Punjab in the coming days.

The police action comes at a time when farmers across the state have been rallying against what they perceive as unjust agricultural laws. Dallewal, who has been involved in organizing these protests, has often been a target of state authorities. The arrest is likely to further fuel the ongoing tension between the government and farmers, with calls for greater solidarity and support for Dallewal.

As the situation unfolds, the Punjab police have remained tight-lipped about the reasons behind the arrest, but it is clear that the incident has escalated tensions between the farmer leaders and the state authorities. Supporters of Dallewal are urging for his immediate release, while politicians and farmer unions are rallying for greater attention to the issue of agricultural reforms.
