Farmers' protests: Delhi's borders sealed as farmers set to resume march

Authorities have tightened security at Delhi's borders as protesting farmers try to reach the capital on a second day.

The farmers, who are demanding assured prices for their crops, say they want to march peacefully to Delhi.

On Tuesday, police fired tear gas after protesters began removing barricades on the way.

The agitation comes two years after similar protests in 2020 forced the Indian government to scrap controversial agricultural reforms.

Farmers are back on the streets saying the promises made to them by the government haven't been fulfilled.
