Khamanon (Punjab): On Sunday morning, 80-year-old Gurmukh Singh reached his village in Punjab after spending at least 15 days in the Tihar Jail in New Delhi along with a dozen or so farmers.Â
While a majority of the farmers and farm law protesters arrested in relation to the mayhem that occurred at the Red Fort, ITO and some others parts of Delhi were picked up on January 26, Gurmukh Singh was one of those rounded up by the Delhi Police on January 28 from the Burari ground â a site which was offered as a designated protest area to the farmers in November last year.
