Punjab: Farmers Modify Tractors Ahead Of Republic Day March

For the tractor march on Republic Day in Delhi, farmers of rural Punjab are modifying their tractors. Reportedly, they have added hydraulic tools to remove barricades and made the tractors fire-resistant to fight tear gas shells. Besides, some have doubled the engine's power to 100hp. Affirming the march to be peaceful, one of the organisers said, “We have learnt from our experience during the November 26 march to Delhi.”
