Continuing his attacks on the Centre over farmers, Communist Party Marxist(CPI-M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury on Wednesday asserted that instead of aiding farmers in distress the government is treating them like 'Terrorists'.

 "Instead of aiding farmers in distress, BJP government try to clamp down on dissent and treats them " like terrorists".Even young kids not spared,"Yechury said in a strongly worded tweet.

 Yechury tweeted a copy of his letter, reminded the government of is promise of maximum Support Price(MSP), that will provide 50% net profit to farmers over their production cost.

Drawing his attention to the farmers protest that have been taking place across the country, including Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra , yechury asked Prime Minister Modi to pass legislation in the forthcoming session of parliament to provide profitable MSP to farmers.
