Farmer Unions Cancel Budget Day March, To Hold Hunger Strike On Jan 30
Following violence during the tractor rally on the Republic Day, farmer unions on January 27 called off the march they had planned to hold on the Budget presentation day on February 1. They will now organise public meetings and hunger strikes across the country on January 30. However, the farmer leaders have alleged a conspiracy behind the violence and have asked the government to initiate a probe into it.
