A thread on opposition& #39;s u-turn on the agriculture bills.

1. Parkash Singh Badal
Before Shiromani Akali Dal broke off a 22 year long alliance with NDA over #FarmBills2020, party patron Parkash Singh Badal defended the same bills just a few weeks ago.
2. Sukhbir Singh Badal

Farm ordinances were vociferously endorsed by him back in June. He also called out Congress CM Capt. Amarinder Singh& #39;s duplicity on them. But suddenly Sukhbir Singh Badla backtracked on his stand & started opposing the #FarmBills2020 now. What changed?
3. Harsimrat Kaur Badal

Just 10 days before resigning from Union Cabinet, Harsimrat Kaur was reassuring farmers on MSP, the benefits of the #FarmBills2020 & taking shots at Congress CM Capt. Amarinder Singh for misleading the poor farmers!
4. Sharad Pawar

In a 2005 interview Sharad Pawar, UPA& #39;s agriculture minister can be seen speaking with eloquence about the abolition of APMC & benefits of private players in agriculture. Now he& #39;s opposing the same #FarmBills2020, even going to the extents of fasting in protest.
5. Congress Party

"Is the opposition with the farmers or with the middlemen?" Congress& #39; Kapil Sibal advocated elimination of middlemen from agriculture with this statement. #FarmersBill are achieving exactly the same, but Congress calls it as the & #39;death warrants& #39; of farmers now.
