All roads leading to the farmer's protests have been walled off as the government tries to contain the protesters and their voices. Entire highways blocked, trenches dug, multiple layers of barricades, spiked wires, concrete blocks and spikes on the roads have been placed to prevent anybody from going in including the media. Movement is tightly restricted, traffic diverted, and farmers are deprived of sanitation, toilets, even net connectivity creating an atmosphere far from being conducive for talks.
