Lakhbir Singh Nizampura vice-president All-Indian Kisan Sabha said: “We have decided that five members would be sent for the dharna daily. If the government decides to arrest the agitators it has been decided that we would not apply for bails and continue sending five members daily till the farm laws are repealed.” Sources in the farmers unions said the SKM has decided not to allow more than 500 farmers at the dharna site on a single day. “It has been done to keep a check on anti-social or suspicious persons attending the protest under the garb of being farmers. The local units will send committed and dedicated farmers only” the source said.
