Farmers Prep For March To Delhi After Haryana Told To Remove Roadblocks | Read

Protesting farmers will march to Delhi after the Haryana government clears roadblocks at Shambhu border separating Haryana and Punjab. Jagjeet Singh Dallewal, president of Bharatiya Kisan Union Ekta Sidhupur, told NDTV they will continue their peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar or Ramlila Maidan in Delhi. The farmers have been protesting against the Centre over various demands, including a Minimum Support Price (MSP) guarantee for crops. They have been camping at the Haryana border since February, when clashes broke out between cops and the protesters trying to march to Delhi. The Punjab and Haryana High Court has now directed the state government to remove the barricades at the border. The high court has said the blockade is causing inconvenience to the commuters. The Haryana government has challenged the ruling in the Supreme Court, citing law and order concerns.
