Farmers’ Protest Gathers Momentum, Security Concerns Rise

Intelligence report on farmers’ protest:

From Punjab alone, 1,500 tractors and 500 vehicles have been mobilised for the farmers’ protest, with these vehicles loaded with six months’ worth of food, rations, and logistics. Tractors have been modified to convert them into shelters and stays.

Farmers have planned to come in small groups and hide in gurudwaras, Dharamshala, ashrams, and guest houses around Delhi and hold snap protests. Security agencies have apprehensions that locations like Prime Minister House, and Home Minister House could be potential protest targets.
