Determined to prevent a repeat of the January 26, 2021 incident, in which protesting farmers clashed with cops on the capital’s streets, Delhi Police is preparing to stop farmers from entering the city on Tuesday. About 200 farmer organisations are part of the protest plan. They have several demands, including a law to guarantee Minimum Support Price and pension benefits. Delhi cops are blocking the city’s borders with Haryana by placing massive containers.
