Singhu, Ghazipur: As the second wave of Covid-19 continues to sweep Delhi, the Singhu and Ghazipur borders have come under sharp focus again as farmers continue to camp there to protest against the Narendra Modi government’s three farm laws.

At the Singhu border, connecting Delhi and Haryana, ThePrint found no social distancing, no masks and no testing at the site, while the protest site at Ghazipur, which connects Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, had volunteers distributing masks.

CHANDIGARH – A two-member ministerial delegation of the BJP-led NDA government is all set to hold talks with the leaders of protesting farmer unions of Punjab on Friday.
A letter from Secretary, Agriculture, Sudhanshu Panday, inviting the union leaders for talks with Agriculture Minister Narinder Singh Tomar and Railways Minister Piyush Goyal has been sent to the farmer unions on Wednesday evening.
Though the date of the meeting was announced by the state BJP leaders yesterday, the farmer unions had not received a formal invite.
“We will be holding a meeting of all 30 unions, who have joined hands for the protest, at Chandigarh on Thursday. The entire strategy for the meeting with the Centre will be jointly decided, before we go to Delhi,” said Balbir Singh Rajewal, president of BKU Rajewal.
