On the seventh day of their march on Tuesday, the farmers remained stationed at the Shambhu and Khanauri points along the Punjab-Haryana border.
A protester has tragically lost their life as farmers sought to resume their march towards India’s capital after four rounds of talks with the federal government failed to resolve the deadlock.
The farmers, who are demanding assured prices for their crops, have been engaging in clashes with the police, who are attempting to prevent them from reaching Delhi.
The last time they staged a protest in the capital, they entrenched themselves at Delhi’s borders for several months. Consequently, officials are striving to prevent a recurrence by fortifying the city’s borders with multiple layers of barricades and barbed wire.
