Isudan Gadhvi claims farmer leader Bharat Singh Jhala was stopped at Gujarat Secretariat and allegedly called โblacklistedโ while raising drought concerns.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Gujarat state president and farmer leader Isudan Gadhvi has raised questions over the alleged treatment of veteran farmer activist Bharat Singh Jhala at the Gandhinagar Secretariat. Gadhvi claimed that Jhala was stopped at the Secretariat when he was reportedly heading to meet the Chief Minister over the demand to declare drought-affected areas.
According to Isudan Gadhvi, officials at the Secretariat allegedly told Bharat Singh Jhala that he was โblacklisted.โ Gadhvi said Jhala has been raising farmersโ issues since 1985 and questioned why a person who has consistently worked for farmers would be stopped from meeting the government.
Isudan Gadhvi Raises Questions Over Alleged Secretariat Action

Gadhvi described Jhala as a farmer activist who has spent decades working on issues affecting the agricultural community. He also claimed that Jhala has continued to travel by buses and rickshaws while helping farmers without expecting anything in return.
โWhy Was Bharat Singh Jhala Stopped?โ
Raising questions over the alleged incident, Isudan Gadhvi asked why a farmer leader would be prevented from raising farmersโ concerns with the government.
He contrasted Jhalaโs grassroots work with the travel arrangements used by government leaders, alleging that the Chief Minister travels in government helicopters and chartered aircraft. Gadhvi argued that the focus should instead remain on addressing the concerns being raised by farmers.
Appeal to Farmers Over the Alleged โBlacklistโ Claim
Isudan Gadhvi also appealed to people to support Bharat Singh Jhala and said the alleged incident should become a matter of public discussion. He called on farmers and citizens to raise their concerns through democratic and electoral processes.
Gadhvi further criticised the BJP in strong terms and urged voters to hold the party accountable during elections. His remarks were part of a broader political attack on the Gujarat government over issues concerning farmers.
Political Controversy Over Farmer Issues
The allegations made by Isudan Gadhvi have brought the treatment of farmer representatives at government offices into the political spotlight. However, the claim that Bharat Singh Jhala was formally โblacklistedโ at the Secretariat remains an allegation made by Gadhvi in the statement provided, and no official response from the Gujarat government has been cited here.
The controversy is likely to draw further attention to the concerns of farmers seeking government intervention over drought conditions and other agricultural issues in Gujarat.
