DW BUREAU / chandigarh Farmers who are protesting against three new farm laws will reach Delhi on November 26 through five highways connecting the national capital as part of their 'Delhi Chalo' march call. The All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee (AIKSCC), Rashtriya Kisan Mahasangh and various factions of Bharatiya Kisan Union have joined hands and formed a 'Samyukta Kisan Morcha' to press the central government to scrap the three farm laws. The 'morcha' has the support of over 500 farmers' organisations. Various farmer leaders met here on Thursday in connection with the November 26 'Delhi Chalo' march. A seven-member committee has also been formed to coordinate the operations of the 'morcha.' Addressing the media here, Yogendra Yadav, a member of the panel, and Swaraj India president said on November 26, farmers will peacefully move towards Delhi through five highways -- Amritsar-Delhi national highway (Kundli border), Hisar-Delhi highway (Bahadurgarh), Jaipur-Delhi highway (Dharuhera), Bareilly-Delhi highway (Hapur) and Agra-Delhi highway (Ballabhgarh). "Farmers will demand in one voice that the farm laws should be scrapped. Proposed electricity law should be immediately withdrawn," Yadav said. "We hope farmers will be allowed to raise their voice in the national capital. If they are not allowed (to enter Delhi), then we have decided that wherever we'll be stopped, we will sit there and launch a protest for an indefinite period," he added. The protest call for November 26 and 27 was earlier given by AIKSCC, a body of more than 200 farmers' organisations across the country. Lashing out at the Centre for "imposing economic blockade" on Punjab, Yadav demanded the government to resume goods trains in the state. Shiv Kumar Sharma, another farmer leader, dubbed the three farm laws as a "death warrant" for farmers. Replying to a question, BKU (Rajewal) president Balbir Singh Rajewal said if the Centre invites them for talks, they will go but will not withdraw their 'Delhi Chalo' protest call.Farmers have expressed apprehension that the new laws would pave a way for the dismantling of the minimum support price system, leaving them at the "mercy" of big corporates. They have been demanding that these new laws should be repealed. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has suffered a revenue loss of about Rs 150 crore so far on account of farmers' protest at toll plazas in Punjab, a senior official said on Thursday. Farmers, who are up in arms against three central farm laws, have been staging sit-ins at toll plazas in Punjab since October 1. Protesting farmers are not allowing toll collection authorities to charge toll fee from commuters. Farmers, however, are permitting vehicles to pass through without any payment at the plazas. There are 25 toll plazas on national highways in Punjab. "The loss is about Rs 3 crore per day from all toll plazas in Punjab," NHAI regional officer (Chandigarh) R P Singh told PTI. With farmers protesting at toll plazas for nearly 50 days now, the loss is about Rs 150 crore, he added. The NHAI has already taken up the matter with the Punjab Chief Secretary over the issue of farmers' protest at toll plazas, officials said. The loss of revenue at toll plazas due to farmers' protest could also cast a shadow over the upcoming road projects in the state, the officials pointed out. Different farmers' bodies in Punjab have been protesting against the three farm laws. Farmers have expressed apprehension that the new laws will pave the way for the dismantling of the minimum support price system, leaving them at the "mercy" of big corporates. They are demanding that these new laws should be repealed. Farmers had resorted to 'rail roko' agitation and staged sit-ins outside some shopping malls, toll plazas and residences of several BJP leaders. The suspension of goods trains in Punjab has already affected the supply of fertilisers for the farming sector and coal for thermal plants. Industry alone has already suffered losses to the tune of Rs 30,000 crore in Punjab, as containers carrying goods have got stuck because of the non-operation of goods trains. (editor@dailyworld.in)
