Renowned Punjabi singer Babbu Mann visited the Khanauri border on the first day of the new year to meet Jagjit Singh Dallewal, a farmer leader who has been on a hunger strike for over a month. Dallewal's protest is part of a larger movement seeking the fulfillment of farmers' demands, including the implementation of a guaranteed Minimum Support Price (MSP) for crops.

Mann, who has been a consistent supporter of the farmers’ protests, expressed his solidarity with Dallewal and praised his resilience. Mann has already urged authorities to address the farmers' issues promptly, emphasizing the critical importance of MSP in safeguarding farmers' livelihoods.

Dallewal’s hunger strike, which has now lasted more than 30 days, highlights the ongoing plight of farmers across the nation. The Khanauri border has become a focal point for this renewed agitation, attracting attention from various quarters, including public figures like Mann, who continue to lend their voice to the cause.

Farmers at the site have reiterated their commitment to peaceful protests until their demands are met. A key part of these demands is the legal assurance of MSP.

Babbu Mann's visit on New Year’s Day has boosted the morale of protesters, who view his support as a testament to the widespread concern for farmers' rights in Punjab and beyond.
