To mark the first anniversary of the enactment of the three farm laws, Samyukt Kisan Morcha called for 'Bharat Bandh' on September 27. Farmers protest at Ghazipur border continued against the three farm laws. The traffic movement has been closed from Uttar Pradesh towards Ghazipur due to protest. Speaking to ANI, Bhartiya kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait said that Ambulances, doctors or those going for emergency services can pass through. “Ambulances, doctors or those going for an emergency can pass through. We've not sealed down anything, we just want to send a message. We appeal to the shopkeepers to keep their shops closed for now and open only after 4pm. No farmer is coming here from outside,” said Tikait.
