As soon as it became known that Sukhbir was coming to the village, a large number of farmers gathered under the leadership of Bharatiya Kisan Union Ekta Sidhupur.

When Sukhbir arrived, the farmers stopped his vehicle. Sukhbir Badal lowered the window pane of his vehicle and asked the farmers the reason for the protest. They said that they wanted to ask him some questions. Sukhbir said that they should turn off the cameras of their mobile phones and ask questions but the farmers didn’t agree. On this, he went on his way.
