One of the fascinating fallouts of the protests by farmers at the border of Delhi has been the emergence of women in the forefront taking charge. Women have also been active in protests against the farm bills in Punjab.

If young women were the star attraction during last year’s anti-CAA protests, it is the women from Punjab villages who caught the nation’s attention by their overwhelming presence at the historic farm protest that continues to choke Delhi borders for over a month now.

They drove tractors, sang songs of rebellion and made highways their new home. Many sociologists saw a new gender awakening in an otherwise patriarchal and male-dominated society even in the agrarian society they come from.

The video of 74-year-old Navroop Kaur, sarpanch of Nawan village in Jalandhar district, has caught everyone’s attention. She packed nearly a dozen females from her village and herself drove the tractor to Delhi.

“Sooner or later, Modi will have to take these bills back as we are determined not to step back,” says Navroop, who too manages a 27-acre farm on her own.
