Farmers To Resume Delhi Chalo March Today After No Message From Govt, Shambhu Border Barricaded
Farmers Protest: Protesting farmers are set to resume their ‘Dilli Chalo’ march on Sunday after Punjab farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said that they have not received any message from the central government for talks to address their issues.
Ahead of the protest, police put up barricades and installed nails at the Shambhu Border. Speaking on the protest at the Shambhu border, Pandher said that the protest has entered the 300th day, but the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led central government is still adamant. On Saturday, Pandhar said that the government is in no mood to hold talks and a group of 101 farmers will resume their march to Delhi on December 8.
On Friday, protesting farmers suspended their march to the national capital for the day after some of them suffered injuries due to tear gas shells fired by security personnel, who stopped them at the Punjab-Haryana border.
