What would you term the farmer’s protests on Republic Day? Can they be called farmers? Or rather they are seen as working against the interest of the country. Every Indian who supported the farmer’s cause, cannot justify the hooliganism in Delhi.
The Supreme Court had asked the Delhi government to look into the farmer’s rally issue, but the tractors rally resulted in being used to run over security personnel when Republic Day is about celebrating India’s democracy.
When protestors broke away from the promise of staying on the decided route and went against democracy but it went beyond marking their protest against the Central government over the three farm laws, asking for them to be repelled.
There was heavy barricading by Police thereafter fearing more protests by the farmer groups. This is a shameful act and it is important to identify the hooligans who sparked the protests on a day like Republic Day.
