Farmers under the banner of Bhartiya Kisan Union (Sidhupur) today gheraoed BJP leader and former minister Madan Mohan Mittal at Circuit House here. The police barricaded Circuit House to keep the marching protesters at bay. When the situation became tense, they escorted Mittal to safety from the back door.
Farmers protested against Mittal as soon as they came to know about his visit to the city. Addressing protesters, BKU (Sidhupur) leader Baldev Singh Sandoha said: “Narendra Modi-led NDA government is working against the farmers’ interests. Everyone is supporting us on the farm laws, except BJP leaders.”

Mittal had come to meet BJP local leaders on the farm laws and the upcoming elections to the Municipal Corporation. Interacting with mediapersons, he alleged that most protesters were not farmers, but Naxals.
