Farmers since past few months in the biting cold winters of north india are sitting on borders and fighting for their rights, as to the farmer’s law is wrong and incorrect. To this, Hema Malini, a former Bollywood actress and BJP’s Mathura MP has said that farmers themselves don’t know what they want.
The actress and BJP MP also said that its good that Supreme Court has stayed these laws as even after so many talks, the farmers are not willing to come to a consensus and this might hopefully clam the situation.
They (agitating farmers) do not even know what they want and what is the problem with the farm laws, which shows that they are doing this because someone asked them to do it: Hema Malini, BJP MP from Mathura (12.01.2021) pic.twitter.com/TvMluuIWGk

She furthermore said that the farmers themselves don’t know what they want and what the problem is with farm laws so, they are unable to comprehend the situation itself. Talking about the vandalism in Punjab of mobile towers, Actor and MP Hema Malini said that Punjab has already suffered a lot of losses, it’s not nice to see farmers vandalise towers, and the government has tried talking to them but they don’t even have an agenda.
The Supreme Court had appointed a panel which has to find a way of the ongoing impasse between the centre and farmers. The farmers have been protesting against the three recently passed farm laws since quite a while and have demanded for the complete withdrawal of the laws.
The statement didn’t go down well with the people of India, and many took to social media handles to show their anger and feelings. Some of the tweets are-

Whatever be #HemaMalini ‘s knowledge (And I’m not optimistic about it) on #FarmLaws, But the #Farmers by rejecting & hesitating to discuss the clauses/provisions of #FarmLaws2020 and raise concerns accordingly to resolve…In Fact #FarmersUnions are proving #HemaMalini correct!
