Farmers’ Movement Resurges: Massive Protest March Shakes Modi Government Once Again
Local authorities remain on high alert amid fears of prolonged sit-ins and possible road blockades.
New Delhi — A fresh wave of farmer protests has erupted across the nation, rekindling memories of the historic 2020–2021 agitation. Under the revived leadership of Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) spokesperson Rakesh Tikait, thousands of farmers are once again marching towards Delhi, raising their voices against what they call “anti-farmer” policies of the central government.
The movement, which many are calling a second storm, has already begun to unsettle political corridors, as the Modi government faces renewed pressure from the agrarian community. Farmers are demanding guaranteed Minimum Support Prices (MSP), complete implementation of previous promises, and the protection of land and livelihood.

“The fight is not over. This is a matter of our survival, our dignity,” said Tikait, addressing a massive gathering of farmers in Haryana before the convoy proceeded towards Delhi.
Security has been heightened around the capital as the administration braces for the influx of protestors. Barricades have been set up at major borders including Singhu, Tikri, and Ghazipur. Meanwhile, local authorities remain on high alert amid fears of prolonged sit-ins and possible road blockades.
This resurgence comes amidst mounting discontent in rural India, with many farmers accusing the government of failing to uphold its commitments made after the previous protests. The mobilization, gaining momentum rapidly, suggests a nationwide ripple effect that could have significant political consequences in the lead-up to upcoming elections.
