New Delhi: As the winter chill grips the national capital, heaters have been installed at the Singhu border where a large number of farmers continue to protest against the farm laws.
While the farmers continue their protest at Delhi borders, the cold weather conditions are becoming a major problem for them.
Speaking to ANI, a farmer from Kurukshetra said, When we started protesting the weather conditions were not so harsh but as BJP s ego is boosting, similarly the weather conditions are also getting harsh. We light up the fire mostly but farmer leaders have made arrangements for gas heaters but even their maintenance is costly. This is a matter of concern.
