"The attempt made by certain elements to create a rift within the same has interestingly not succeeded. In fact, farmers appear to be displaying no communal division along religious, regional and/or any social barrier. This point is marked by their paying special attention to act as security guards when Muslims among them offer prayers.

The farmers have refused to backtrack from their stand even though they have been attacked by water cannons, tear-gas shells, sticks, and other means. There have also been reports of their water supply, Internet and so forth being cut. Undeterred, farmers’ sit-in agitation along the capital city (Delhi)’s borders shows no sign of coming to a halt till the government withdraws controversial agricultural laws." https://www.counterpunch.org/2021/02/19/indian-farmers-protest-a-strong-democratic-test/
