Farmers Delhi march on and talks with union government to take place on Sunday after completion of its third round

While on the one hand the agitating farmers organisations have said that their march will continue unabated on the other hand they have accepted to continue their deliberations with the government on Sunday, as well. Their third meeting last night with the government formally led to the decision of another Sunday meeting . This was few hours before their decision for the nation wide stir on Friday. Their had been very hectic days for the police and paramilitary dealing with the protesting farmers at the various borders with teargas shells, plastic pellets shot at them and also through the drones injuring several farmers including the panicked journalists, people n farmers running Helter and Skelter seeking refuge for safety. The police have issued clear cut instructions through newspapers and news channels banning gatherings of any type at Noida and Gautam Budh Nagar and other adjoining areas in view of the Bharat Bandh call appeal by the Kisan and Samyukt Morcha, a leading peasants organization, a conglomerate of several Kisan organisations who’d held the massive Kisan protest in support of their demands in 2021-22 finally compelling the Union Government to revert back and revoke its orders and declarations. Though the Kisan Samyukt Morcha is in any way not associated with the “Delhi Chalo march”, but their demands are more or less the same. While the Haryana Roadways have supported the demands of the Bharat Bandh keeping the tolls, free for three hours in Haryana as their expression of solidarity with the farmers demands, the senior leaders of nine trade unions will hold a joint protest at Jantar Mantar over the 21 demands which mainly include the minimum support price, minimum pension and minimum wage for farmers and agricultural workers etc. At the Punjab Haryana border the struggle between the police, paramilitary and the farmers have been tremendous with police having a hard day dealing with the protesting farmers bent upon continuing their march to Delhi with several panicked farmers injured and in tears due to the lobbing of tear gas shells and also using the drones throwing on them the test gas shells. The Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann, Agricultural minister Arjun Munda and union minister Piyush Goal held a meeting with the protesting farmers at Chandigarh being the third round . However, when the deliberation between the farmer leaders and the ministers were going on, the protesting farmers were facing the consequences of tear gas shells etc.
