About Aam Aadmi Party banners being put up at Nirankari Maidan, Chadha told , " If a person is doing something on his own it is a different matter, but we are only here to extend hospitality to the farmers."

Tents, shelters and portable toilets are being provided to the protesting farmers. "We have been given instructions by Chief Minister Kejriwal to ensure that all the arrangements in Nirankari Maidan are in place. Wherever farmers want to go and protest, they should have complete independence. The Modi government should not make it an ego conflict," said Chadha.

"Farmers should be allowed wherever they want to go. Arvind Kejriwal will be the host of farmers in Delhi," Chadha further said.

Basic essential amenities are being provided to the farmers at Nirankari Maidan. As part of this, drinking water was the first thing arranged here. For this the Delhi government had sent its MLA and Delhi Jal Board vice-president Raghav Chadha to Burari to take stock of the arrangements yesterday.
