Muktsar, December 30
Sanyukt Kisan Morcha members have started night patrolling the Singhu border on motorcycles to ward off notorious elements. Initially, four motorcycles, which have been given a special look, have been pressed into service.
Earlier, teams of farmers patrolled the protest site on foot. Bharatiya Kisan Union (Kadian) spokesperson Ravneet Singh told The Tribune over phone: “Several youths have volunteered for night patrolling. To ensure these youths stand out in the crowd, the motorcycles have been painted green. Soon, they will be provided with a uniform. The initiative will be replicated at the Tikri border.” He further said, “Women, children and elderly persons are putting up in tents and tractor-trailers. So it becomes our duty to protect them.” — TNS
