Rakesh Tikait's Tearful Resistance Brings More Farmers To Ghazipur Protest Site

INDIA Team Latestly|

The Ghazipur protest site, one of the key sites of the farmers on Delhi borders, witnessed a high-octane drama on the night of January 28 amid apprehension that authorities will vacate the site. Policemen in heavy numbers were descending on the site since morning in the aftermath of the January 26 violence. Soon news came that the Ghaziabad DM had issued a verbal ultimatum to farmers, clear the site by midnight or be removed. The protest site had already been plagued by power cuts & disruptions in water supply. Later, Bharatiya Kisan Union leaders boldly declared that no matter, they will not surrender & the protest will continue. Named in multiple FIRs, BKU national spokesperson Rakesh Tikait took to the stage & said that he will not surrender & will even call more people to join the protest if needed. Soon, hundreds of followers gathered outside Rakesh Tikait's house in UP's Sisauli, chanting slogans in his support. By 11 pm, the numbers at Ghazipur once again started to swell.
