On Sunday, a lawyer from Punjab ended his life a few kilometres from the site of the farmers’ protest at Tikri border. He left a suicide note behind titled ‘Letter to Modi, the Dictator’.

According to PTI, Advocate Amarjit Singh of Jalalabad Bar Association of Punjab was taken to the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (PGIMS) in Rohtak where doctors declared him dead on arrival.

In the suicide note left behind by the lawyer, he said that he was sacrificing his life in support of the farmers’ agitation against the Centre’s new farm laws so that the government is compelled to listen to the voice of the people.

The letter allegedly left by Singh stated:

“The general public of India has given you absolute majority, power and faith for saving and prosper their life. After independence the common people expected better future in you as Prime Minister.

But with great sorrow and pains I have to write that you have become the Prime Minister of Special group like Ambani and Adani etc. The common people like farmers and labours is feeling defrauded by your three agriculture black Bills and worst life is inevitable. The public is on tracks and roads not for votes but for the livelihood of their families and generations, in order to feed some capitalists, you have destroyed the common people and agriculture which is backbone of India. Kindly don’t snatch the bread and butter (roti) of farmers, labours and common people for a few capitalists. It is said that you wish for sacrifices like Godhra and also offer my sacrifice in support of this world wide agitation for shaking your deaf and dumb conscious”.

The letter also said that “judiciary has lost the faith of the public”.

They are verifying the authenticity of the suicide note, dated December 18, the police said.

“We have informed the relatives of the deceased and once they reach here their statements will be recorded and further proceedings will be conducted,” an officer from Haryana Police said adding that they were informed about the suicide by the hospital authorities, PTI reported.
