manaloplay Farmers' Protest: Ahead Of ‘Delhi Chalo March’ Internet Suspended In Ambala
Authorities in Ambala have suspended internet services in certain areas as a precautionary measuremanaloplay, anticipating the gathering of farmers preparing for a march to Delhi. The move aims to prevent the spread of misinformation and maintain law and order.
At Shambhu Border, peasant leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said, as quoted by ANI, "The protest has entered the 307th day and our third 'jatha' of 101 farmers will leave for Delhi by noon. The whole country is supporting the protest. But our Prime Minister and Union Agriculture Minister are not saying anything about it and are maintaining distance. Government agencies are trying their best to ensure that the 'morcha' does not win. I urge everyone to support the protest."
The protest, led by organizations such as the Bhartiya Kisan Parishad(BKP) and the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha(KMM), are driven by demands for fair compensation and benefits under the new agricultural laws.

The farmers, who have been camping at the border since February 2023, faced tear gas shelling and water cannons as they tried to continue their march, leading to several injuries. Despite repeated clashes with security forces, the farmers remain determined to press on with their demands until they are met.
This protest marks the 307th day since the farmers first gathered at the Shambhu border.
The farmers are marching for multiple demands, including a legal guarantee for MSP, ensuring fair prices for their produce; farm debt waiver and pension for farmers and agricultural laborers; reversal of electricity tariff hikes, and withdrawal of police cases filed against farmers during previous protests; justice for the victims of the Lakhimpur Kheri violence of 2021; and reinstatement of the 2013 Land Acquisition Act and compensation for families of farmers who lost their lives during previous agitations.
"There won't be a vacuum. Someone will come in my place, for sure. All the sports are like that. Sachin Tendulkar was there and now there is Virat Kohli, and someone will take his place tomorrow. Somanaloplay, Sreejesh was there yesterday, but someone else will come and take his place tomorrow," the goalkeeping stalwart told PTI in an interview at the India House in Paris.
