Kisan Kranti Padyatra

Yasin Khan, 45, is the father of six kids. He is the sole breadwinner in his family of eight and works as a sugarcane farmer in Uttar Pradesh's Muzaffarnagar. The government sugarcane mill has not given his total payment of Rs 10,000 for the last four months.

Educational institutions in Ghaziabad will remain closed on Wednesday due to the ongoing farmers' protest at the Delhi border, the district administration has announced.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Tuesday that preventing a protest march of farmers from entering the national capital was "wrong" and pitched for allowing them entry into the city.

After an overnight march in Delhi, farmers have called-off their protest after reaching Kisan Ghat, the memorial of Chaudhary Charan Singh, news agency IANS reported. They were allowed to enter the national capital late in the night after police unsealed the border between Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.

The police had earlier issued prohibitory orders in east and north-east Delhi anticipating trouble. Farmers are now stopped at the Delhi-Uttar Pradesh border with police using water cannons and tear gases to disperse them.
