Announcing the tour programme of Mr. Gandhi here on Wednesday, Bhatti Vikramarka, TPCC working president, told media persons that enroute to Nirmal the AICC vice-president might receive representations from people.
However, there would be no road shows. During his 15-km yatra, he would visit the families of five farmers who had committed suicide. Asked whether Mr. Gandhi would extend any financial aid, Mr. Vikramarka didn’t give a clear reply. He said that 936 farmers had committed suicide because of the indifference of the State Government towards the farming sector.
Mr. Vikramarka said that those accompanying Mr. Gandhi would be finalised depending on whom the SPG allows.
