New Delhi: Farmers unions demanding the revoke of the 3 new farm laws and the procurement of crops at the Minimum Support Price (MSP) will be taking out ‘Tractor rally’ today.  The tractor rally, which is called by the Sanyuta Kisan will run on the Western Peripheral Expressway. The march is scheduled to start from Ghazipur border in Ghaziabad towards Palwal in Haryana and back through the expressway.

The tractor rally is being organised by Sanyuta Kisan Morcha, an umbrella of 40 farmer unions. The Eastern Peripheral Expressway is a 135-km-long six-lane road stretch connecting Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. It passes through Gautam Buddh Nagar.

According to the protesting farm unions, this is just ''rehearsal'' for their proposed January 26 tractor parade that will be moving into the national capital from different parts of Haryana, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. Farmers started the tractor march around 11 am and moved towards Kundli–Manesar–Palwal Expressway amid heavy deployment of Delhi Police and Haryana Police personnel.

The tractor march, led by senior BKU leader Rakesh Tikait, moved towards Palwal. ''In the coming days, we will intensify our agitation against the three farm laws. Around 2,500 tractors from Haryana have participated in today's march.
