State has witnessed a late surge in agitation
Though the farmers agitation in Punjab is primarily led by farmer unions with substantial political support, “Khaps”, the community organisations representing a clan or a group of related clans, spearhead the movement in Haryana, which has witnessed a late surge in agitation.
Four days after the November 26 farmers unions’ call for “Dilli Chalo”, hundreds of farmers from across 59 villages in and around Charki Dadri district in Haryana held a “panchayat” under the aegis of “Sangwan Khap” to express their solidarity with the agitators.
