Video: Biryani Served At Ghazipur To Farmers On Their Way To Delhi
To ensure their well-being, many have come forward to offer them food and medical help, if needed. A video of biryani being served to the farmers at Ghazipur was posted by Times of India on Twitter today.
Even if you have been following the news or skimming through social media, you must have read about how farmers from Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh have been marching towards Delhi for the last three days.
The farmers, having been unheard for months, have decided to put pressure on the Central government with regard to the three new agriculture-related laws. BJP-led governments of UP and Haryana have refused to lend a helping hand to the farmers, while Punjab and Rajasthan have offered full support to their agitation.

So, while all this is happening, farmers are stuck at the borders of the National Capital due to the police force barricading entry into the city. Not giving up and fighting hard for their rights, they are nowhere close to returning home.
