Farmers have been demanding the repeal of three black laws as they are not in the interest of farmers. Farmers will organize every function here. Birthdays have also been celebrated here. We will not leave until these laws are repealed.”
Sachin’s father Ramjit Singh who is affiliated with Madhya Pradesh Kisan Sabha said they wanted to strong message to the government that they will not leave the site until farm laws are repealed.
