This interview with Fateh Singh Dhillon was published on 27 December 2022. In this interview, there was a discussion with him about the sit-in against Zeera liquor factory and 16 false cases (FIR’s) filed against him by the administration. He said that we are demanding clean air and clean water from the administration and are appealing to close this factory because people and animals are dying due to it. He said that the discharge of the factory is thrown into the underground water through the bore well due to which the water of the nearby villages has become very polluted. He said that the government is making false cases against us to discourage the protestors and call off the dharna. Therefore, the government cannot be trusted. Apart from this, he also gave information about the difficulties faced by the prisoners in the jail. He said that the government should impose a penalty of 5-600 crores on the owner of this factory. But the administration also helps the owner of the industry. During the interview, some men were seen digging a bore well from the factory and cleaning it with the help of the administration.
