 "Naresh Tikait")
Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) activists would block the Delhi Dehradun National Highway at Nawla village on Monday demanding dues and upward revision of cane price.
BKU President Naresh Tikait, addressing a BKU panchayat at the headquaters in Sisoli near Muzaffarnagar last evening, appealed to his followers to reach the spot on February 1 for blocking the highway.
He said the activists would launch a procession from Sisoli to Nawla village for the agitation.
"The minimum sugar cane price fixed by the Uttar Pradesh government was not acceptable for the cane growers as it favoured sugar mill owners," he alleged.
BKU has begun preparation for its agitation by holding meetings in different villages here.
