Today, farmers have completed 200 days on the Shambhu and Khanauri border located between Punjab and Haryana. At the same time, thousands of farmers are reaching the border from Haryana, Punjab and other states. Wrestler Vinesh Phogat also attended this program of farmers. Whom the farmers organization honored by calling them on the stage.
Government should fulfil its promises
During this, Vinesh Phogat said that it has been 200 days since he has been sitting here. It's sad to see this. They are all citizens of this country. Farmers run the country. I am an athlete and belong to the whole country. Nothing is possible without farmers, if they don't feed us, we won't be able to compete. We represent the country at such a big level, but we are unable to do anything for our families, even if we see them suffering.
I urge the government to listen to them. He accepted his mistake last time, he should fulfill his promises. If people keep sitting on the streets like this, the country will not progress.
Senior leader of Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee, Sarwan Singh Pandher said that today it has been 200 days since the farmer movement. The stage has been set for the coming farmers. Thousands and lakhs of farmers will gather at Shambhu and Khanauri border today.
Government will be forced to open the border
