Tamil Nadu farmers have taken to protesting at Jantar Mantar again after their demands for loan waivers were not met.
The farmers have said that they have been protesting for the past eight days.
We have been protesting for eight days. Earlier, we protested for 41 days. The government is promising but not fulfilling our demands. We will protest for 100-200 days
Earlier in May, when the farmers were protesting in the capital, they shaved half their heads, put mice and snakes in their mouths, got the skulls of deceased farmers and ran naked at Raisina Hill to drive the government’s attention to their plight.
