Farmers who began their foot march from Punjab towards Delhi to press their demands, were stopped at the Punjab-Haryana Shambhu border on Thursday.
Speaking to the media at the Shambhu border, farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said that the farmers will wait for the government regarding talks, and if there is no information received, then a 'Jattha' of 101 farmers will again begin a march towards the national capital on 8 December.
He said that if the round of talks had started by now, a solution to this movement could have been figured out.
