Some farmers stuck in Haryana due to lockdown, others plan to continue agitation
Farmers at the Singhu border said the protest is going strong amidst the raging pandemic as crowds are coming back to the site following the harvesting season.
Sukwinder Singh Barwa from Ropar said the crowd became half of the initial strength during the harvest season, but people are starting to come back.
“A group with over 250 tractors and trucks reached on May 10 while another group arrived on May 12,” he said.

New Delhi, February 8
A makeshift informal school at Delhi s Singhu border, where farmers have been protesting the new agri laws, has resumed after a two-week break with less children owing to the tense situation following the tractor parade violence on Republic Day.
A group of farmers from Punjab s Anandpur Sahib had, in December, started the school in a makeshift tent for school-going children who had accompanied their parents to the Singhu border protest site and those living in the slums nearby.
Pioneered by writer Bir Singh and advocate Dinesh Chaddha, the temporary school is part of the multiple sewa practices being offered at the protest site. Sukhwinder Singh Barwa, a resident of Roop Nagar district in Punjab, said they resumed the classes on February 5.
