Raut, one of the handful people wearing a face mask, met Tikait and other protestors off the stage after reaching here around 1 pm.
“The way vandalism unfolded here after January 26 and an attempt made to suppress the movement and Tikait, we felt it is our responsibility to stand by the farmers' and extend support of the whole of Maharashtra, Shiv Sena and Uddhav Thackeray saahab,” Raut told reporters.
Tikait said, “The farmers' protest is apolitical and no politician has been given the mic or space on the stage.”
