Farmers’ mega march on Nov 29

New Delhi, November 25

Over one lakh farmers from across the country plan to assemble in the national capital on November 29 and 30 to participate in a mega march to protest against, what they have termed, the Centre’s “failure” to address their issues.

Hannan Mollah, convener of the All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee, an umbrella body of 208 farmers’ and agricultural workers’ organisations, said on November 29, the farmers would start the Kisan Mukti March from different corners of Delhi to Ramlila ground.

A cultural programme ‘Ek Sham Kisan Ke Naam’ dedicated to farmers would be held at the Ramlila ground on the first day of the congregation.

“On November 30, the farmers will start their march  to Parliament. Farmer leaders will speak on agrarian issues and leaders of different parties will address the gathering,” said Mollah. — PTI
