Alexander the Great was shivering with fever because the poison of an arrow he got at Multan battle had already mixed in his blood when he was crossing rough and barren terrain before the coastal area of Makran.

Lakhs of farmers, protesting against the three farm laws passed by the union government last year, will march towards the Parliament on foot sometime in the middle of the month of May, said All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) General Secretary Hannan Mollah on Thursday.
Mollah told ANI that the march is being organised because "the government is not listening to the voices of the farmers".
"Modi Government and Parliament are not listening to the farmers then it is our right to go in front of Parliament and raise our demand and we will decide sometime between the middle in the month of May. Thousands of farmers will come to the border first, then march to Delhi on foot," he said.

Synopsis
While there is hope on the horizon where the disease is concerned as the vaccination rollout continues apace, the gridlock between the protesting farmers and GoI shows no sign of early resolution.
The two topics vying for headline space in the national media are the coronavirus pandemic and the ongoing farmers’ agitation against GoI’s agricultural reforms. While there is hope on the horizon where the disease is concerned as the vaccination rollout continues apace, the gridlock between the protesting farmers and GoI shows no sign of early resolution, recalling the conundrum of classroom physics as to what happens, or fails to happen, when

The new farm reform laws brought in by the Modi government is helping Farmer Producer Companies (FPC) in Maharashtra in creating an alternative marketing channel for farmers, reports
BusinessLine.
Farmers are also receiving the market rates on their WhatsApp groups or via SMSes which help them to decide whether they want to sell their produce in the Agriculture Produce Market Committee (APMC) mandis or to the FPC procurement centres.
Yogesh Thorat, MD of Maharashtra Farmers Producer Company (MahaFPC) which is a consortium of about 400 FPCs says that the new farm law about APMCs gives freedom to farmers to choose the market. If the rates are higher than MSP, then farmers sell their produce outside the APMC mandi to FPC’s procurement centres and when market rates are less than MSP, they take produce to the APMC mandi.

The Sikh factor and siege of Delhi | The Express Tribune

The Sikh diaspora across Europe and North America came out in droves to condemn Hindutva’s fascist agenda.
Calls of “Bharat Bandh” are resonating across India as farmers from Indian Punjab, Haryana, Himachal, UP, Madhya Pradesh and even South India are rising in protest against crony capitalism and the chokehold of the Adanis and Ambanis on the peasantry that feeds 1.3 billion people.
