Farmers Prortest: After 11 months of peasant unrest, who has now closed the roads to the unrest sites? This question arose. Because the Supreme Court asked for this thing. Since then, neither the farmer nor the police want to take responsibility for the road being closed because of them. This is the reason why for the past few days there has been a campaign to open the way to the border of Tikri and the border of Ghazipur. On Saturday, where on another Tikri border, Delhi police removed all barricades on the road from Delhi to Bahadurgarh and farmers also expressed their consent to open the 5ft road after much plea, this too with a condition. However, the barricades were lifted by Delhi police at the Ghazipur border, but the road is still closed to the population. Farmers Prortest
