Thousands of farmers are protesting in Delhi and its borders against three new farm laws enacted by the government.

New Delhi:  The farmers’ protest against the three agricultural sector laws passed by the central government in the last monsoon session entered seventh day on Wednesday with demonstrations on Sant Nirankari Samagam ground in Burari on the outskirts of Delhi, besides the border areas.

The Shiromani Akali Dal on Tuesday blamed the Centre for the “failure of talks” with the protesting farmers, alleging that the government was prolonging and deepening the deliberation process with the aim of tiring the farmers out.
