Farmers Start Heading Home, Cops To Remove Barricades From Protest Sites
Farmers camping at Delhi's Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur borders will take out a victory march today as they return to their villages in Punjab and Haryana after a 15-month agitation that forced the centre to withdraw three contentious farm laws.

New Delhi, 11 December2021

As per news report of NDTV, Farmers are now dismantling their makeshift accommodations at the border sites as the agitation, which braved forces of nature as well as tags of "terrorists" and "khalistanis", draws to an end. They will gather for some ceremonies and start their journey home.  Special arrangements have been made along the highways to greet the farmers as they head home on tractors, it is learnt. The victory march was initially planned for yesterday, but it was postponed in the wake of the tragic helicopter crash in Tamil Nadu that killed 13 people, including Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat. Rakesh Tikait, the face of the farmers' protest, told news agency ANI yesterday that a large group of farmers shall vacate the protest sites today. "We will talk, pray and meet the people who helped us. People have started vacating already, it will take 4-5 days. I will leave on December 15," he said.
