Criticising the police firing on farmers in Greater Noida, BJP vice-president and Rajya Sabha MP Kalraj Mishra today accused the Mayawati-led Uttar Pradesh government of being insensitive towards the farmers.

"Farmers in UP are getting more agitated with each passing day and it is a clear manifestation of lack of good administration," Mishra told reporters here.

The BSP government's promises of providing adequate compensation to the farmers, whose fertile land were acquired specially in the last seven months are a charade, he said, adding that by arresting farmers, who came for talks on the issue, the government has lost its remaining credibility.

Mishra also alleged that the intelligence department of the state has failed as they were not able to get the prior information of the criminal elements involved in the farmers' agitation.

Those elements should have been arrested and the violence perpetrated by the police should also be condemned in harshest words, said Mishra.

Mishra demanded an all party meeting to be convened on the issue and also asked for an inquiry into the matter by a sitting judge.

Meanwhile, former BJP leader K N Govindacharya termed the land acquisition law as a draconian one and advocated for a pro-farmer scheme.

He also said that the government should not give the fertile land of farmers to the builders and real estate owners.
