For the last four days, Yashwant Sinha has been protesting for the farmers who have been displaced because of an NTPC project here. Shatrughan Sinha told reporters: "I have come to extend my support to Yashwant Sinhaji as a younger brother. I back his demands for the farmers." The farmers were promised jobs when their land was taken for the project. But later, they were refused employment after which they started protesting leading to cases being filed against many of them.
