Protest agenda: Farmers demand ‘toll-free’ India on Saturday (Ld)

New Delhi, Dec 12 : Agitating farmer unions here have circulated a message among their cadres across the nation to make India a ‘toll-free’ country for Saturday in the ongoing protest against the three farm laws enacted by Parliament.
The message was circulated a day ago and the announcement was made in two previous farmers’ meeting held at Singhu border on Delhi-Chandigarh highway on Thursday and Friday.
A particular wing of protesting farmers led by a few of their representatives have moved towards Delhi-Gurgaon toll plaza to begin their scheduled protest.
Harinder Singh Lakhowal, General Secretary Bharatiya Kisan Union (Punjab), told IANS that they want to make the whole country toll-free on Saturday as part of the protest.
“We will start from Delhi-Gurgaon toll plaza and similar steps will be taken by our supporters across India for today (Saturday).” Lakhowal also said that they have planned to block Delhi-Jaipur highway too as the farmers have already blocked Kundali, Tikri, Palwal and Ghazipur borders that connect Delhi to Haryana, Chandigarh and Uttar Pradesh.
