SP chief Akhilesh Yadav appealed to the people as well as party workers to support the farmers in their struggle and ensure that they face no shortage of essentials like floor, pulses, rice and milk.

Alleging that the BJP was working towards damaging the democracy and its values, Yadav said "it was the unity of the people which helped in overcoming the dark days of Emergency and with the lawyers and youth joining hands along with intellectuals, those who have gone back on their promises will also be defeated soon."
