New Delhi: Social activist Anna Hazare will hold a two-day protest at Jantar Mantar later this month against the recent amendments in the Land Acquisition Act by the Centre.
The agitation will be supported by several farmers’ organisations and many other social activists including Medha Patkar will participate in it.
“The two-day protest starting from February 23 will focus on the recent anti-farmers amendments in the Land Acquisition Act made by the Narendra Modi government. Farmer organisations across the country will participate in the agitation. Medha Patkar is also expected to join the agitation,” Hazare’s office said.
Hazare will reach the national capital on the morning of February 23.
This will be Hazare’s first visit to the national capital after the landslide victory of his one time aide and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal. (PTI)
