New Delhi, February 4: The farmers' protests have become a topic of discussion not only in India but also internationally. According to a Hindustan Times report, the increased fortification of protest sites in Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur has restricted access to toilets, sanitation facilities, and water for the agitators.

The report mentioned that farmers spread across the eight-kilometre-long protest area have to travel long distances to reach toilets or access drinking water. Since the barricading and blockades are on the Delhi side, access to toilets and water tankers provided by the Delhi government has been severely disrupted.
