One of the biggest highlights of the rally was the presence of farmer leaders from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, and Rajasthan, who had come to show their solidarity with the movement.

Leaders from Samyukta Kisan Morcha and the Bharatiya Kisan Union had travelled all the way from Singhu border to attend the rally.

Suresh Koth, a farmer leader from Haryana who was protesting at Singhu border, said that they were protesting outside Delhi’s borders to talk to the government, but PM Modi and Amit Shah were in Bengal. So they came to Bengal.

It must be noted that the Samyukta Kisan Morcha has already said that their leaders would visit Bengal and Assam starting 12 March, to appeal to the voters for the same.
