Ghaziabad : Former Bharatiya Janata Party president Rajnath Singh Friday afternoon ended his 24-hour fast here in support of a farmers’ agitation for higher compensation for their land, a party official said.
He was offered a glass of juice by Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj and National Democratic Alliance (NDA) chairman Sharad Yadav at a government guest house in Vasundhara township here.
Earlier, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister sat on a fast in Ambedkar Park to protest against the “lawlessness and forceful acquisition of farmers land” by the Mayawati government in Gautam Budh Nagar and other areas for a highway project.
