Sangrur, July 25

More farmers, especially women, and their family members continue to leave for New Delhi to join the protest against the central farm laws. On Sunday also, many vehicle of farmers left from Sangrur for Delhi borders.

“We are committed to taking our fight to a logical conclusion, even if take years. We know the central government is unwilling to repeal the laws, but we would also not end our protest without getting our demand met,” said Baljit Kaur while leaving for Delhi.

Jangir Kaur, another protester, said she had been visiting the borders along the national capital regularly while her husband and both sons with their wives too were also supporting the agitation.

Though women have been away from their families for long, they stay connected over the phone. BKU (Ugrahan) Lehra block president Dharminder Pashore said every week thousands of farmers were leaving for Delhi borders. — TNS
