Around 5,000 farmers under the banner of All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), began a 1,300-km-long ‘Vehicular March’ from Nashik, on Monday, to the national capital borders, where farmers from across the country have been protesting demanding the repeal of three recently passed Farm laws. At noon on Tuesday, while more farmers under the AIKS will assemble at Maharashtra’s Dhule before they leave for Delhi, another 10,000 farmers are expected to undertake a peaceful protest march from the Collector’s Office in Bandra to the Ambani Corporate Complex in BKC to express their unhappiness with the government at the Centre.
