I and my community members have decided to reach Singhu border in solidarity with agitating farmers.” The 29-year-old makeup artist Praman Seth said, “Why in our country we all have to protest for our rights? Why does the government always doubt the intelligence of people? Anyways I will be joining the protest with my friends; if not anything I would go and sit with them in their struggle”.
