BATHINDA: Another protesting farmer died at Shambhu border early Friday, bringing the toll to 36 in nearly a year since the protest started at Shambhu and Khanauri borders on Feb 13, 2024, to press for their demands, including a legal guarantee for minimum support price as per the C2+50% formula.
The deceased farmer, Pargat Singh (65), was from Kakkar village in Amritsar district and owned two acres of land. According to farmer leader Sarvan Singh Pandher, Pargat woke up in the morning and fell down. The other protesters rushed him to hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The cause of death will be known after the viscera report.
Pandher demanded a compensation of Rs 5 lakh and a job for Pargat’s family. He urged the central govt not to wait for more lives to be lost, and accept the demands of the protesting farmers.
