New Delhi/Ghaziabad: Hours after receiving a ‘signed’ letter from the central government accepting most of their demands, farmer unions on Thursday ended their year-long agitation and decided to leave the sites they had occupied on national highways on Delhi borders, with tents at Singhu, a key protest venue, being wound up.
Putting off celebrations in deference to the last rites of Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat and others who died in the chopper crash in Tamil Nadu on Wednesday, the unions will take out a victory procession only on Saturday. All toll plazas are to be cleared by December 15 even as Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) said the farmers are “suspending” the agitation that began 378 days ago and would meet on January 15 to assess the Centre’s actions on their demands. If the government does not fulfil its promises, we could resume our agitation,” SKM warned.
