Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh today embarked on three-day 'Kisan Bus Yatra', which will cover over 500 km in seven districts, with a vow to "punish" Badals for allegedly pushing the state's farmers to suicide.

The yatra was flagged off by the widows of nine debt-ridden farmers who committed suicide. Some of the women lost both their husband and son to the vicious cycle of mounting debt, a Punjab Congress spokesperson claimed.
