2 Farmers Make Bail, Call Of Sit-In Protest At Haryana Police Stations Called Off

The two farmers were arrested for allegedly trying to gherao JJP MLA Devendra Singh Babli's residence last week.

The Samyukt Kisan Morcha called off a plan to hold protests at "all" police stations in Haryana after the release of two arrested farmers on bail Monday but said a sit-in at Tohana will continue since another man is still behind bars. The two farmers were arrested for allegedly trying to gherao JJP MLA Devendra Singh Babli's residence last week. "Ravi Azad and Vikas Sisar were released from jail in the early hours after which today's programme to gherao all police stations in the state has been put off," Bharatiya Kisan Union leader Joginder Ghasi Ram Nain told reporters here. Mr Nain, however, said the ongoing dharna at the Sadar police station compound here will continue as one more farmer activist was still behind the bars.
