According to the Delhi Police, security has been tightened at the protest sites to keep a watch on the movement of farmers.
The Delhi Police will remove the multiple layers of barricades at the three farmers' protest sites in a phased manner depending on the movement of protesters who will start returning home from tomorrow, officials said on Friday.
The Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), an umbrella body of 40 farm unions, had on Thursday decided to suspend the movement against the farm laws and announced that farmers camping at three border points of Delhi - Singhu, Tikri, and Ghazipur - will go back home.
The announcement came after the SKM, which is spearheading the movement, received a central government signed letter wherein it agreed to consider the farmers' pending demands, including the withdrawal of cases against farmers, and the formation of a committee on minimum support price (MSP) for their crops.
According to the Delhi Police, security has been tightened at the protest sites to keep a watch on the movement of farmers.
