GHAZIABAD: With the number of women taking part in the protests at Ghazipur border increasing steadily, a couple of night shelters and a store have been set up at the site to cater to them.

Big shelters have been covered with thick plastic sheets and mattresses and blankets have been supplied for the farmers.
