Farmers’ protest: Relay hunger strike today across all protesting sites

Farmer unions announced relay hunger strike from December 21 onwards at all protest sites to press for the repeal of the Centre's new agri laws.

The agitating farmer unions have been threatening of intensifying their stir.

“Farmers will begin a day-long relay hunger strike on Monday at all sites of protest against the new agri laws.

It will be started by a team of 11 members at protests sites here,” Swaraj India Chief Yogendra Yadav said at a press conference at the Singhu border.

Farmer leader Jagjeet Singh Dalewala said farmers will not allow toll collection on highways in Haryana from December 25 to 27.”On December 27, our prime minister will say his 'Mann ki baat' and we want to appeal to people to beat 'thalis' during his address," the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader said.
