Akali Dal Chief Sukhbir Badal Faces Farmers' Ire On Home Turf
Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal faced the wrath of farmer unions at a public rally for the second consecutive day on Tuesday in his home district of Muktsar. As a part of the pre-election campaign, "Gall Punjab Di", Mr Badal was scheduled to hold nine public meetings, including one with the SKM leaders. However, farmer union activists demanded that the meeting between the SKM and Mr Badal be held in the presence of the media, to which the SAD leadership refused.
