“We were trying our best that the authorities should listen to our demands here itself. Our journey began around eleven days ago but now we will be going to Delhi with our demands. I don’t understand why didn’t the government consider our demand that was given to them in writing. It has been decided that all the farmers will be heading to Delhi now,” said Rajendra Yadav, State President, Indian Farmers Organization.
The farmers here have asserted that they are left with no option and now they will be heading to Delhi today morning. They have further requested the media and reporters to support them in this march and convey their message to everyone.
Farmers have decided to conduct a hunger strike if their demands are not accepted after conducting a march to the national capital.
