"Hunger Strike In Honour Of Those Who Died Amid Protests": Farmer Leader

The Delhi-Jaipur highway is partially blocked after many farmers from Rajasthan and Haryana - agitating against the centre's farm laws - began a sit-in protest at the Rewari border. Rampal Jatt, president of Kisan Mahapanchayat, is among those who've joined today's hunger strike. "I will not even consume water. The hunger strike is in honour of the farmers who have died in the cold while protesting. It is a symbol of our spirit of 'Satyagraha' (holding onto truth) against the farm laws," Rampal Jatt, who is from Sawai Madhopur in Rajasthan, told NDTV.
