Farmers allege that they are being deprived of their right to participate in peaceful programs in the capital. On the other hand, this step by the administration has brought back memories of the strict security measures taken at the Delhi border during the 2024 farmers' movement.

It is learned that after reaching the Shambhu border, barricades were placed in front of the Punjab farmers and they were stopped. However, protesters have alleged that farmers coming from various areas of Haryana did not face similar obstacles on their journey towards Delhi.

Unable to enter Delhi, the farmers of Punjab started staying at the Shambhu border. They claim that this is not a program of conflict, but a movement to establish democratic rights to present their demands.

BKU (Shaheed Bhagat Singh) leader Tejveer Singh has alleged that Haryana police have set up barricades up to the border of Punjab. He claimed that the Punjab government has not taken any effective steps in this incident.

Amidst this program of farmers, the movement of the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) is ongoing in Delhi. The organization started a march towards Parliament on Monday demanding an investigation into the medical entrance exam question paper leak and the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. After police obstruction and clashes, the situation in the capital became heated.

Two consecutive major movements have created new pressure on Delhi politics. According to political analysts, as youth protests and farmer discontent intensify at the same time, it may become more difficult for the central government to manage the situation.

Especially with anger brewing simultaneously on three important issues—agriculture, education, and trade policy—it could impact Delhi politics in the coming days.
