Singhu, Delhi:Â As the night descended, thick fog shrouded the area. Water droplets constantly drip from the ceiling corners of the tent. An indistinct chatter can be heard afar.
The sound of a roaring Royal Enfield breaks the silence. A bike with saffron Khalsa flag pivoted at the front-end arrives and a man riding pillion, holding a united farmerâs flag, screams âKisan-Mazdoor ektaâ. People from all around, with blankets draped around their shoulder, immediately reply by saying, âZindabadâ.
