PATIALA: This comes amid the ongoing hunger strike by farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal, who has been on a fast-unto-death since November 26 at the Khanauri border.
Farmer leader Abhimanyu Kohar said that the farmers would be out on roads on their tractors on January 26 across the country to raise their voice for a legal guarantee for the minimum support price (MSP).
The protesting unions also announced that the copies of the draft National Policy Framework on Agricultural Marketing would be set on fire on January 13. These announcements came after both the protesting unions - Samyukta Kisan Union (non-political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha - held a meeting at the Khanauri protest site.
Dallewal's health deteriorating Meanwhile, the condition of farmer leader Dallewal continued to deteriorate further on Tuesday when his blood pressure (BP) dropped to a critical level.
Dallewal's systolic BP fell to 77, while the diastolic value was recorded at 45 last night, creating a panic at the Khanauri site.
