The farmers groups have stated that while their Bharat Bandh call is for the entire day today, chakka jam will be observed from 11 am to 3 pm. Transport services, offices and shops - particularly those selling fruits and vegetables - in some states and cities are likely to be affected. Farmers have said that they will not take any produce to markets to sell. A release from the protesting farm groups stated that hospitals, ambulances and other emergency services have been exempted from the bandh. They, however, said that markets, shops and other services will remain closed.
