Twenty five of them will sit at Singhu border, 10 at Tikri border and five at UP border,” said Harinder Singh Lakhowal, general secretary of Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU).
The farmers are protesting against the recent introduction of new farm bill by the parliament. The law providing famers with ‘will to sell’ have been receiving a divided response from all farmers across the Nation.
The protesting farmers demand complete abrogation of the new farm bill that has majorly three laws as follows:
- Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act
- Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act

"Centre is being stubborn about our demands. This is an attempt to wake them up," says Balkaran Singh Brar, Working President, All India Kisan Sabha, Punjab
The Chief Minister of Punjab, Captain Amarinder Singh condemns Delhi CM’s comments on the matter, calls it ‘exploiting’.
“AAP is exploiting farmer’s struggle for their petty electoral agenda in Punjab with blatant lies and brazenly false propaganda”, said Capt. Amarinder Singh, C.M Punjab.
The protest has already stretched from for 20 days and now more aggressive marches with banners, posters, and slogans against the ruling government are coming into picture. These farmers from Punjab and Haryana are demanding the revoke of entire farm bill and we need to wait and see how this matter comes to negotiation leading to a final settlement.
