The routes, he said, will be announced later.
The breakthrough came after Delhi Police have agreed to remove their barricades from Singhu and Tikri borders to allow the rally to enter Delhi, the leader said.
Police intelligence reports estimated 70,000 to 1 lakh tractors to be part of the farmers rally, the leader said.
“They said that it may take 48 hours to complete the march and asked us to reconsider the route as it may sabotage the official Republic Day parade,” Singhwala said.
Delhi Police and farmers had been stuck in an impasse over routes for the past few days. Farmers had previously announced that they were holding the parade in the Outer Ring Road, causing Delhi Police to worry about the impact it would have on the central government’s Republic Day Parade.
