Farmers protest at Delhi borders may act as COVID-19 'superspreader' event:  Experts It has been reported that several complaints have been filed in the wake of adverse impact on the industrial units, affecting more than 9000 micro, medium, and large companies. Allegedly, the transportation is affected which is causing the commuters, patients, physically challenged people, and senior citizens to suffer due to the heavy congestion on roads amid farmers' protests. Digging in: on the frontlines as farmers lay siege to Delhi | India | The  Guardian On Tuesday, Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij had said that "It (farmers' stir) can't be called an agitation. People don't bring swords, use lathis and block the passage of people in an agitation. They sit on dharna and hunger strikes. This can't be called a protest. You may call it 'ghadar' (mutiny)." Vij had tweeted, "Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh ji telling farmers to do whatever they want in Haryana or Delhi and don't do it in Punjab is a very irresponsible statement. This proves that Amarinder Singh has done the work of instigating the farmers." -PTC News  -
