Akali Dal holds protest against farm laws; SCO summit; more

Members of the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Friday held a protest march in New Delhi against the three farm laws brought by the central government last year.

The protest march was taken out from Gurdwara Rakabganj Sahib to the Parliament building to mark the completion of one year of continuing protests by SAD against the farm laws. The march was led by SAD President Sukhbir Badal and former Union minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal.

The three agriculture laws, which the farmers have been protesting against for several months now, were passed in Parliament on September 17, 2020 and the SAD minister had resigned from the Union Cabinet in protest.
