The farmers, who have travelled from different parts of Punjab and Haryana, came fully prepared with trucks full of ration, ready for a long stand-off.
Sand-laden trucks, water cannons are stationed and barbed wire have been used for fencing at the Delhi-Haryana border to prevent protesting Punjab farmers from entering Delhi.

The primary reason why the farmers don’t want the new farm laws is exactly same the reason why India didn’t join RCEP. India decided not to be part of RCEP, to avoid cheap products from outside (mainly China), and to ensure that Indian businesses will not be disadvataged. There it’s all good. But now the same government wants to force the farmers to accept new farm laws so that Indian businessmen get the power.This is called “Baniya Niti”.
One interesting fact: After the Doklam crisis there were many calls by the right-wing guys to boycott Chinese items (the same also happened after Galwan event). When the general public started avoiding Chinese products, our own Indian businessmen (mostly supporters of BJP), requested to please buy the Chinese products. Why? Because they already paid to the Chinese and if they’re not able to sell, then it’s them who will incur the losses. As indians you should buy so that Indian “baniyas” are not disadvantaged.
