The ongoing Tractor Rally in Gujarat has become a major political and agricultural issue as Aam Aadmi Party Gujarat president Isudan Gadhvi addressed the matter through a Facebook Live statement, emphasizing that the movement must remain focused on farmers’ rights and not be diverted into political controversy.
Gadhvi said in the context of the Tractor Rally in Gujarat that farmers from several districts had invited him to join the protest, but he decided not to participate so that the core issues of farmers do not get diluted. He also expressed regret over his absence and apologized to nearly 54 lakh farmer families, while assuring continued support from AAP-backed farmer groups.

He further claimed that political pressure and differences were being used to create divisions within the movement, but reiterated that AAP’s commitment to farmers remains strong.

Allegations and political questions
During his remarks on the Tractor Rally in Gujarat, Gadhvi questioned both BJP and Congress leadership, asking what concrete steps they had taken for farmers affected by land acquisition and transmission line projects. He alleged that farmers are facing pressure due to private companies allegedly supported by administrative systems.
He also stated that the public is increasingly aware of political alignments that weaken farmer movements, but insisted that his focus remains only on farmers’ welfare.
Demand for high-level committee and reforms
A key point in the Tractor Rally in Gujarat statement was Gadhvi’s demand for a high-level committee to address farmers’ issues transparently. He suggested that the committee should include government officials, company representatives, farmer leaders, and retired judges to ensure fair decision-making.
He also called for reforms such as proper compensation laws, land value protection, and profit-sharing mechanisms for farmers impacted by infrastructure projects.
The Tractor Rally in Gujarat continues to highlight farmers’ demands for justice, fair compensation, and transparent governance. Gadhvi reaffirmed that AAP will continue to raise these issues in the Gujarat Assembly and on the ground until farmers receive full legal and economic protection.
