In a press statement, he said some of the AIJASS ex-members are spreading rumours that their national president Yashpal Malik is planning to launch a Jat quota stir amid farmers’ agitation.

“Such statements were made only to defame Malik and our body. We had called a meeting of the national executive body on October 2 in Delhi in which we had decided to dissolve all district, state and national units. We are supporting the farmers’ protest for a long time and will continue to do so until their demands are met,” he said.

“We have also decided to oppose the BJP in poll-bound Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and other states. The BJP had betrayed us by not fulfilling the promises it made,” he added.
