To support the cause of the Indian farmers struggling against three farm laws, Dr BirBikram Singh, Faculty, Department of Physics & Dean Alumni, Sri Guru Granth Sahib World University, Fatehgarh Sahib paid a visit to Singhu Border, New Delhi on a bicycle.
During his five days and 500 km long journey Dr. Singh witnessed the support of the layman, cut across caste, creed, religion and profession, to the farmer agitation against three farm laws. He said that his bicycle journey will surely further boost the awareness campaign in support of the Indian farmers who are peacefully protesting at the Delhi borders for more than last one and a half month while facing very harsh weather conditions. He further mentioned that due to severe winter season farmers are suffering a lot, particularly, the elderly ones which comprises of both men and women.
He also appealed to the Government for empathetic approach towards the demands of the farmers. It is worth noting that the farmers are continuously running free kitchen (langar) in the service of even local people, in and around the Delhi borders, while following the noble tenets like that of ‘well being of one and all’ enshrined in Sri Guru Granth Sahib and other religious scriptures.
Dr. Singh mentioned that during his visit he was honoured by the youngsters, with a book entitled ‘Martyr Bhai Jaswant Singh Khalra’, who are running one of the free libraries near the main stage of protesting site at Singhu Border.
