Around 20,000 members of the Kisan Sena will march from western Uttar Pradesh to Delhi on Thursday to highlight their support of the centre's farm laws. The march may set up a potential face-off with thousands of farmers who have been camped around the Delhi borders for nearly a month in protest of those laws. The pro-agriculture law group will include farmers from the Braj area of the state, which includes districts like Mathura, Agra, Firozabad and Hathras, as well as those from the Meerut and Muzaffarnagar districts, Kisan Sena convener Thakur Gauri Shankar Singh told news agency PTI.
