The Punjab government has accused the BJP-led central government of step-motherly treatment by trying to create an "economic blockade-like" situation with suspension of goods trains in view of "security concerns" because of farmers' protests against Centre's farm laws. Punjab is running low on supply of essential goods, including coal, urea fertilizer for sowing crops and gunny bags to store the recent "bumper" harvest - all of which have further angered the state's protesting farmers.
