The Bhartiya Kisan Parishad (BKP), together with many other farmer groups like the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha (KMM) and the Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), have stated that they will march to Delhi on Monday to seek compensation and benefits under the new agricultural legislation. The first group, led by BKP leader Sukhbir Khalifa, will begin their march at noon on December 2 under the Maha Maya flyover in Noida.
“We are ready for our march to Delhi.” Tomorrow, December 2, we will begin our march towards Delhi beneath the Maha Maya flyover (in Noida). At noon, we will all go there and demand our pay and benefits under the new legislation,” BKP leader Sukhbir Khalifa told ANI.
To mitigate the impact on traffic, Noida officials issued a traffic alert warning of probable congestion on major roads. To prevent delays, commuters can choose other routes and consider taking the metro.
The Delhi Police and Gautam Buddh Nagar Police will undertake severe border checks, with barriers in place to control traffic movement. To avoid delays and maintain safety, traffic diversions and limitations have been implemented.
