A gypsy, with two loudspeakers mounted on it, takes a U-turn (on NH 7 at Chano) and enters Kalajhar village in Sangrur district of Punjab. As it enters, it starts announcing to the farmers in the village to gather at the outskirts and set the crop residue on fire. Such announcement is a sharp contrast to the law that forbids crop residue burning.<br /> <br /> Vehicle stops under a Neem tree. Jagtar Singh, a leader of Bhartiya Kisan Union (Ekta-Ugrahan), steps out of the vehicle along with five other farmers. He picks up a microphone and starts addressing a small gathering.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;The decision of banning crop residue burning is unjustifiable and makes us poorer,&rdquo; says Singh. He further urges farmers to unite against this anti-farmer move of the state and Union governments that has been forcing farmers to buy costly new machines. After his 10-minute-long speech, more than two dozens of farmers, moved towards a field and set off fire in paddy straw.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;It is our non-violent protest against this anti-farmer government. We all farmers are ready to get arrested,&rdquo; Singh tells Down To Earth. In few seconds, the field gets engulfed in fire. Smoke starts billowing, turning the sky black.<br /> <br /> It is a common scene in Punjab villages where farmers harvest paddy.
