The farmers are currently observing a one-day hunger strike which will go on till 5 pm along with sit-in protests across the country.”
The Delhi Police said, “Ghazipur border is closed for traffic coming from Ghaziabad to Delhi due to farmers protests. People are advised to take alternate routes for coming to Delhi via Anand Vihar, DND, Chilla, Apsara and Bhopra borders.”
