NEW DELHI, Jan 27: As cracks began to appear in their ongoing agitation against the agri laws after the violence during the tractor parade, farmer unions today cancelled their planned march to Parliament on February 1 when the Budget would be presented.
They said their agitation against the farm laws will continue and public meetings and hunger strikes will be held across the country on January 30 on Mahatma Gandhi’s death anniversary to emphasise on peace and non-violence.
The decision by farmer unions came a day after massive violence during their tractor rally in the national capital that left nearly 400 police personnel injured, as the protesters deviated from the routes, clashed with the cops and laid siege to the Red Fort.
