Delhi Police allows movement at Singhu border after yearlong farmers’ protests - The traffic movements at Singhu borders have finally been allowed after over one year of farmers protesting the three farm laws of Centre.
Gurmakh and his fellow villagers have been running a small langar for several weeks. “We lived through winter without much trouble because we had blankets, quilts and lots of mattresses. We did not have much space, but we could huddle to ward off the cold and sleep,” said the farmer. “But summer will not be so easy. There are mosquitoes and our tents and trolleys are not ideal spaces for us to live and sleep in.”
Mandeep said that people could come and use the building to sleep at night. “We are sure it will house at least 150 people,” he said. Gurmakh added that the structure would be 18 ft wide and 50 ft long and would have a tin roof. “Many protesters have already built houses, but those are on the other side of the road,” he said.
