Santosh Singh's earliest memory is of tilling soil on his family's farm. Now, the 70-year-old farmer's eyes gleam with pride as he recalls watching his grandson do the same.
But Singh hasn't been home to Punjab for one year since he joined farmers at one of three protest sites in the Indian capital to campaign against new farming laws they claimed would leave them open to exploitation.
"When I first came here, I thought I'd be here for 15, maybe 20 days, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made one whole year go by," said Singh, as he sipped his morning tea, surrounded by young protesters, at a campsite in Singhu on Delhi's outskirts.
