Muzaffarnagar, 10th March. An unidentified individual has threatened to blow up Bharatiya Kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait and his family if he does not withdraw from farmer protests.

According to police, Gaurav Tikait, son of Rakesh Tikait’s brother and BKU president Naresh Tikait, filed a complaint alleging that he received a phone call from an unidentified person threatening Rakesh Tikait and his family with a bomb if he did not stay away from farmer agitations.

Akshay Sharma, the SHO of Bhaura Kalan police station said, a case has been filed in this regard.

“We are trying to identify the caller and a probe is underway,” Sharma said.

Rakesh Tikait was one of the farmer leaders who led the anti-farm laws agitation. He continues to take part in farmer protests across the country.

Rakesh Tikait called on farmers earlier this month at a Jat Mahakumbh in Jaipur to prepare for an agitation against the ban on diesel tractors older than ten years.

“Whether it is the government of the state or the central government, we are not against any party. But if there is any wrong policy of the governments, then there will be agitation,” he said.
