INDIA Team Latestly|

Support is growing swiftly for the ongoing farmers’ agitation in Haryana with a large number of farmers turning up at dharna sites at toll plazas on the national highways on February 2. At the Landhari toll plaza on Hisar-Sirsa national highway near Hisar, thousands of farmers vowed to wage a long battle against the three farm laws that they described as “anti-farmer”. Farmers also blocked the Patiala-Jind-Rohtak-Delhi national highway at Khatkar toll plaza near Narwana town along the Jind & Hisar-Chandigarh national highway on February 2 to oppose internet curbs in some parts of the state. On the night of February 1, farmers had blocked the Jind-Chandigarh highway at Kandela village for some time. They said the suspension of internet services had adversely affected the studies of their children. On the other hand, the state government says it has suspended internet services “in order to stop the spread of disinformation and rumours”. Watch the video to know more.
