With wheat harvesting almost over in Punjab, scores of farmers and farm labourers are all set to ‘march’ again to State borders of Delhi on May 5 in a bid to ensure the momentum of the ongoing agitation against Centre’s farm laws stays intact. “Several groups of farmers are all set to leave for Delhi on May 5 from Amritsar. Since the agitation started on Delhi borders, this is our twelfth big batch that would be going. Smaller number of farmer batches keep continuously going and come back from Delhi borders on routine basis from many villages as well,” he said. Farmers from Punjab will continue to throng Delhi borders unless the government repeals the three controversial farm laws,” he said.
