HOSHIARPUR/LUDHIANA: Movement of several trains was affected across Punjab on Thursday after farmers squatted on the tracks as part of their two-hour 'rail roko' protest in support of various demands, including justice in the 2021 Lakhimpur Kheri incident.
The protest, which was organised by Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) (non-political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha (KMM), began at 12:30 pm.
It marked the third anniversary of the Lakhimpur Kheri incident in which eight people, including four farmers, were killed in 2021 during a demonstration against the now-repealed three farm laws.
