Farmers have once again started their ‘Dilli Chalo’ march towards Delhi to protest for their rights. The march, which started a few days ago, has been facing obstacles from the police. At the Shambhu border in Haryana, the police used tear gas to try and stop the farmers from continuing their journey towards the national capital.

The farmers are protesting for better prices for their crops, debt relief, and the repeal of certain farm laws they believe are harmful to them. They have been demanding these changes for a long time, and today’s march is a part of their ongoing struggle to get the government’s attention.
At Shambhu border, which is located between Haryana and Punjab, the situation became tense when the police tried to block the farmers’ way. The police fired tear gas shells to disperse the crowd, but the farmers are determined to continue their march to Delhi. Despite the tear gas, the protesters are staying strong and committed to their cause.

This protest is part of a larger movement that started earlier when farmers from different states gathered to voice their concerns. The ‘Dilli Chalo’ march is seen as an effort to bring these issues directly to the government in Delhi, where the farmers believe their demands will be taken seriously.
The situation at the border remains tense as both the police and farmers continue to hold their positions. The government has yet to announce any plans to meet with the protesters, but the farmers say they will not back down until their issues are addressed.
The farmers hope that through this march, their voices will be heard and their demands will be considered by the government. The protest is a reminder of the ongoing struggles faced by farmers in India, and the need for better policies to support them.
