&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The farmers&amp;rsquo; struggle at the Delhi borders completed six months yesterday, the 26th of May. The day was observed as a Black Day all over the country, at the call of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM).&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Braving unprecedented cold, followed by rains and storm, the struggle has now moved into the cruelest part of Delhi&amp;rsquo;s summer. In the process, it has lost 470 of its people, thanks to the obstinacy of the government. If one dates the beginning of the struggle from June, when it began in Punjab, soon after the farm laws were stealthily, under cover of the pandemic, promulgated as ordinances by the Central government, the struggle has been on for ten months now. In other words, it is incorrect to go on referring to it as a protest &amp;ndash; which we routinely do for many lost causes &amp;ndash; for it is now a &amp;lsquo;do or die&amp;rsquo; struggle. It became so from the time it shifted its venue to lay siege to Delhi.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Periodically, the government, its police and its minions in the media try and zero in on this epic struggle of the farmers for its ignoring, if not violating of Covid19 protocols. All this even as they look the other way while lakhs of people are thrown into the jaws of death, brought about by the mass murderers who have pushed populations in four states into prolonged election campaigns, played cynical games with precious oxygen and vaccine supplies and allowed all kinds of mass religious gatherings of the Hindus to take place in complete disregard of any protocol whatsoever.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It is important therefore to remember, as Dr Darshan Pal, one of the leaders of the SKM, asserted recently, in the following interview to The Wire, that &amp;ldquo;we cannot just retreat&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;have to be prepared to sacrifice our lives in the form of exposure to cold, exposure to heat or to Covid&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo; It is not a joke nor a sign of irresponsibility when an entire section of the population decides to court death because it is really a choice between two kinds of death.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Throughout July and August, there were tractor marches and protest meetings in villages, followed by submitting of memoranda to the district administration as well as to the chief minister and the prime minister. Between 7-10 September 2020, there was a call for a &amp;lsquo;jail bharo andolan&amp;rsquo; and the movement clearly started building up towards greater mass support and militancy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The point, in short, is that the movement in the early stages was being conducted keeping all the protocols of the Covid19 situation in mind but it was the criminal, pro-corporate intent of the government that actually had gambled on the possibility that the fear of the pandemic would keep the movement limited to such token forms as rooftop protests. Obviously, that was a hopeless miscalculation and the government alone has to be held responsible for pushing a large part of its population into a situation where retreat is no longer a possibility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The farmers&amp;rsquo; struggle at the Delhi borders completed six months yesterday, the 26th of May. The day was observed as a Black Day all over the country, at the call of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM).&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Braving unprecedented cold, followed by rains and storm, the struggle has now moved into the cruelest part of Delhi&amp;rsquo;s summer. In the process, it has lost 470 of its people, thanks to the obstinacy of the government. If one dates the beginning of the struggle from June, when it began in Punjab, soon after the farm laws were stealthily, under cover of the pandemic, promulgated as ordinances by the Central government, the struggle has been on for ten months now. In other words, it is incorrect to go on referring to it as a protest &amp;ndash; which we routinely do for many lost causes &amp;ndash; for it is now a &amp;lsquo;do or die&amp;rsquo; struggle. It became so from the time it shifted its venue to lay siege to Delhi.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Periodically, the government, its police and its minions in the media try and zero in on this epic struggle of the farmers for its ignoring, if not violating of Covid19 protocols. All this even as they look the other way while lakhs of people are thrown into the jaws of death, brought about by the mass murderers who have pushed populations in four states into prolonged election campaigns, played cynical games with precious oxygen and vaccine supplies and allowed all kinds of mass religious gatherings of the Hindus to take place in complete disregard of any protocol whatsoever.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It is important therefore to remember, as Dr Darshan Pal, one of the leaders of the SKM, asserted recently, in the following interview to The Wire, that &amp;ldquo;we cannot just retreat&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;have to be prepared to sacrifice our lives in the form of exposure to cold, exposure to heat or to Covid&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo; It is not a joke nor a sign of irresponsibility when an entire section of the population decides to court death because it is really a choice between two kinds of death.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Throughout July and August, there were tractor marches and protest meetings in villages, followed by submitting of memoranda to the district administration as well as to the chief minister and the prime minister. Between 7-10 September 2020, there was a call for a &amp;lsquo;jail bharo andolan&amp;rsquo; and the movement clearly started building up towards greater mass support and militancy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The point, in short, is that the movement in the early stages was being conducted keeping all the protocols of the Covid19 situation in mind but it was the criminal, pro-corporate intent of the government that actually had gambled on the possibility that the fear of the pandemic would keep the movement limited to such token forms as rooftop protests. Obviously, that was a hopeless miscalculation and the government alone has to be held responsible for pushing a large part of its population into a situation where retreat is no longer a possibility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The farmers&amp;rsquo; struggle at the Delhi borders completed six months yesterday, the 26th of May. The day was observed as a Black Day all over the country, at the call of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM).&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Braving unprecedented cold, followed by rains and storm, the struggle has now moved into the cruelest part of Delhi&amp;rsquo;s summer. In the process, it has lost 470 of its people, thanks to the obstinacy of the government. If one dates the beginning of the struggle from June, when it began in Punjab, soon after the farm laws were stealthily, under cover of the pandemic, promulgated as ordinances by the Central government, the struggle has been on for ten months now. In other words, it is incorrect to go on referring to it as a protest &amp;ndash; which we routinely do for many lost causes &amp;ndash; for it is now a &amp;lsquo;do or die&amp;rsquo; struggle. It became so from the time it shifted its venue to lay siege to Delhi.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Periodically, the government, its police and its minions in the media try and zero in on this epic struggle of the farmers for its ignoring, if not violating of Covid19 protocols. All this even as they look the other way while lakhs of people are thrown into the jaws of death, brought about by the mass murderers who have pushed populations in four states into prolonged election campaigns, played cynical games with precious oxygen and vaccine supplies and allowed all kinds of mass religious gatherings of the Hindus to take place in complete disregard of any protocol whatsoever.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It is important therefore to remember, as Dr Darshan Pal, one of the leaders of the SKM, asserted recently, in the following interview to The Wire, that &amp;ldquo;we cannot just retreat&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;have to be prepared to sacrifice our lives in the form of exposure to cold, exposure to heat or to Covid&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo; It is not a joke nor a sign of irresponsibility when an entire section of the population decides to court death because it is really a choice between two kinds of death.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Throughout July and August, there were tractor marches and protest meetings in villages, followed by submitting of memoranda to the district administration as well as to the chief minister and the prime minister. Between 7-10 September 2020, there was a call for a &amp;lsquo;jail bharo andolan&amp;rsquo; and the movement clearly started building up towards greater mass support and militancy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The point, in short, is that the movement in the early stages was being conducted keeping all the protocols of the Covid19 situation in mind but it was the criminal, pro-corporate intent of the government that actually had gambled on the possibility that the fear of the pandemic would keep the movement limited to such token forms as rooftop protests. Obviously, that was a hopeless miscalculation and the government alone has to be held responsible for pushing a large part of its population into a situation where retreat is no longer a possibility.&lt;/p&gt;

Six Months of the Farmers’ Struggle – Looking Ahead -Aditya Nigam

-Kafila blog The farmers’ struggle at the Delhi borders completed six months yesterday, the 26th of May. The day was observed as a Black Day all over the country, at the call of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM). Braving unprecedented cold, followed by rains and storm, the struggle has now moved into the cruelest part of Delhi’s summer. In the process, it has lost 470 of its people, thanks to the obstinacy of the government. If one dates the beginning of the struggle from June, when it began in Punjab, soon after the farm laws were stealthily, under cover of the pandemic, promulgated as ordinances by the Central government, the struggle has been on for ten months now. In other words, it is incorrect to go on referring to it as a protest – which we routinely do for many lost causes – for it is now a ‘do or die’ struggle. It became so from the time it shifted its venue to lay siege to Delhi. Periodically, the government, its police and its minions in the media try and zero in on this epic struggle of the farmers for its ignoring, if not violating of Covid19 protocols. All this even as they look the other way while lakhs of people are thrown into the jaws of death, brought about by the mass murderers who have pushed populations in four states into prolonged election campaigns, played cynical games with precious oxygen and vaccine supplies and allowed all kinds of mass religious gatherings of the Hindus to take place in complete disregard of any protocol whatsoever. It is important therefore to remember, as Dr Darshan Pal, one of the leaders of the SKM, asserted recently, in the following interview to The Wire, that “we cannot just retreat” and “have to be prepared to sacrifice our lives in the form of exposure to cold, exposure to heat or to Covid…” It is not a joke nor a sign of irresponsibility when an entire section of the population decides to court death because it is really a choice between two kinds of death. Throughout July and August, there were tractor marches and protest meetings in villages, followed by submitting of memoranda to the district administration as well as to the chief minister and the prime minister. Between 7-10 September 2020, there was a call for a ‘jail bharo andolan’ and the movement clearly started building up towards greater mass support and militancy. The point, in short, is that the movement in the early stages was being conducted keeping all the protocols of the Covid19 situation in mind but it was the criminal, pro-corporate intent of the government that actually had gambled on the possibility that the fear of the pandemic would keep the movement limited to such token forms as rooftop protests.
