As farmers’ blockade of the six-lane Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway came to an end on Saturday evening, Bharatiya Kisan Union spokesperson Rakesh Tikait warned of intensifying such measures unless the Centre heeded to their demands of repealing the controversial agriculture laws.  

“Like Delhi borders, KMP can also be blocked completely. Today was a trial for five hours,” he said. 

Farmers blocked some parts of the highway as a mark of 100 days of their protest at Delhi’s borders on Sunday.  The road blockade began at 11 am and continued till 4 pm.
