Senior farmer leader Darshan Pal Saturday said the decision by BKU leader Rakesh Tikait to not hold a chakka jam in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand was taken in “a hasty manner” and it would have been better had he first discussed his plan with the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM).

As per news report of The Indian Express, Pal comments came after Tikait had said there would be no road blockade in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. “It would have been better if Rakesh Tikait had talked and discussed about his proposal of not having chakka jam in UP and Uttarakhand with us before telling the media. He, of course, did discuss it with the SKM later and it was a joint thing,” Pal told reporters at a press conference at Singhu border.
