Mahapanchayats giving timely impetus to farmers’ protest
The Hindu
The two-month-old farmers’ sit-in agitation around Delhi opposing the three farm laws seemed set to fizzle out in the aftermath of the Republic Day violence during the tractor parade, but the series of khap mahapanchayats in its wake have apparently turned the tide.
These mahapanchayats have emerged as new rallying points for the agitating farmers after Republic Day. The massive turnouts at these meetings have not only been just a show of strength, but also given a new lease of life to the movement.
