“I am appealing to you all, stop buying goods from BJP supporting shopkeepers in Kairana for 10 days to one month. Suffer hardships for some days as it will result in these shopkeepers mending their ways”, Hasan was quoted as saying.
“Their homes run because we buy things from them. And because of that, we are suffering”, added Hasan.
This statement by the Samajwadi Party MLA is said to have been made during a protest against a demolition drive in the region.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
