Highlights:
- Completed six months of farmers’ agitation
- Protesting the government’s policy by waving black flags
- AAP also supports agitating farmers
The farmers’ agitation is still going on on the border of the capital Delhi at a time when the corona is spreading in the country and many people are losing their lives. The farmers are demanding the repeal of the agriculture laws passed by the central government by force.
Black flags were also hoisted at the Singhu border against agricultural laws. Attempts are being made by the government to flee the protesters out of fear of Corona. However, farmers will not leave for fear of corona, said Rakesh Tikait, leader of the Indian Farmers’ Association.

We oppose government policies. We have taken the tricolor in hand, the government is also asking what is the need to take the tricolor in hand? “Even after six months, the government has not withdrawn the black laws, so we are protesting by waving black flags,” Tikait said.
