The farmers' protest in the country has garnered attention across the world. The movement had been sparked after the Central Government has passed the Farmers' Bill which has brought in a few amendments. This hasn’t gone down well with the farmers and they have protested against the new laws and have demanded an amendment in the same. Many renowned faces have joined the movement and nowhere is a recent addition to the same. Kings XI Punjab cricketer Mandeep Singh has also joined the protests with his brother. Even Harbhajan Singh has also rendered his support. Farmers' Protest Updates: 'If Centre's Proposal is on Repeal of the Bill, Only Then We Will Take Note, Not Amendment', Says Farmers' Leader.

With this, he becomes the first active Indian cricketer to participate in the protests. Now, let's have a look at the post by Mandeep Singh and a tweet by Bhajji.
