Farmers' Chakka jam today: Security tightened at Delhi borders; vigil on social media

Farmers protesting against the Centre's new farm laws have announced a countrywide 'chakka jam' today, for which the Delhi Police have deployed additional measures, including tightening security and intensifying vigil at the city's border points, to deal with any situation emerging out of the situation. The Samyukt Kisan Morcha, an umbrella body of the farmer unions protesting the three farm laws, on Friday said there would be no 'chakka jam' in Delhi on Saturday, even as it asserted that peasants in other parts of the country will block national and state highways for three hours but in a peaceful way.
