Why the farmers' protests are a wake-up call for rest of us : The Tribune India


Natasha Badhwar
My family and I spent the last two weeks travelling through Punjab to Dharamkot in Himachal and back home to a Delhi suburb. As we drove away from the capital city, we were cheered by the sight of tractors and cars with banners and flags of farmers’ unions going towards Delhi. On our way back, we found ourselves joining the cavalcades arriving at the protest sites on Delhi’s borders for the Tractor Parade on Republic Day. On the night of January 25, the traffic on the highway had swelled so much that we were unable to find a way to enter the city. We had become one with the farmers.
