Huge Jams At Delhi Border, Trains Cancelled Amid Farmers' Bharat Bandh | Read

Farmer organisations have called a "Bharat Bandh" today as part of their long protest seeking withdrawal of three farm laws that they allege will give power to private firms to take over the agriculture sector. Several trains have been cancelled. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), an umbrella body of over 40 farm unions, is leading the 6 am-4 pm protest today. The group has said they will not allow movement on some sections of national highways. This morning, Delhi-Meerut Expressway was blocked near the Ghazipur protest site, affecting the traffic coming from Uttar Pradesh. Huge traffic jams were seen at Delhi's borders with Gurgaon and Noida as vehicles entering the national capital were hecked by Delhi Police and paramilitary jawans.
