Congress leader & boxer, Vijender Singh distributes food to protesting farmers at Tikri Border

Congress leader & boxer, Vijender Singh on Friday distributed food at langar organised by Jamindara Student Organization (JSO) for protesting farmers at Tikri Border in Delhi. "We are here to serve the farmers of our country. Our fight is not against the government but the 3 black laws," he said.

Hundreds of farmers have been protesting on the outskirts of Delhi since November 26 demanding that the government repeal the newly enacted farm laws. The farmers have been camping at several border points into Delhi for three weeks, demanding that the new farm laws be repealed as they claim it would benefit the corporates and end the traditional wholesale markets and the minimum support price regime.

The government has held six rounds of talks with farmers' organisations including a meeting called by Union Home Minister Amit Shah offering changes to the laws and written assurances.
