Security forces place barricades at Singhu border, one of the main sites of farmers protests, in New Delhi on Sunday
The Singhu border in Delhi is bracing for the biggest logjam of the farm agitation so far on Monday, with 10,000 more protesters expected to join those already at the protest site amid signals from Rajasthan that hordes of farmers there are straining at the leash to proceed to the capital.
Around 1.45 pm on Sunday, traffic on the Delhi-Jaipur national highway stalled at Jaisingh Khera as hundreds of farmers from Rajasthan were stopped by police from going further. The Alwar administration diverted traffic through the Behror-Tatarpur-Khairtal route. The tail of vehicles stuck on the highway stretched up to 10km. The border was opened for vehicles coming from Delhi after 3.5 hours, according to officials.
We have not blocked the highway. It's a consequence of the fact that the police have blocked us placing barriers. We are simply trying to go to Delhi to get the government listen to us, said Amra Ram, a farmer activist from Rajasthan.
