We don’t engage in violence,” mentioned Tikait on farmers allegedly assaulting two policemen for clicking photographs on June 10.
“Police and government want to instigate farmers. If they (police) have been visiting the site for days, contact should have been established. They can file FIR, but there should be something to write in it,” he added.
