Tractor March (From Thikriwal, Punjab to Delhi) | Aug 2015

We had declared that their 10-day long Tractor March campaign would not allow the Modi government to pass the “black law” related to land acquisition. The campaign would force the Modi government to withdraw the new land acquisition bill as it would give the government a legal right to acquire the lands of farmers without their consent and without adequate compensation.

We also led the protest against the Race Course Club as that land belonged to the farmers. Yogendra Yadav with hundreds of volunteers were arrested during the protest at Jantar Mantar. After all this the ‘Black Law’ was revoked by the government.
