Lakhs of farmers from every corner of the country came to Parliament Street to fight for their fundamental rights that is being denied to them at every step.

There were a huge number of women farmer at the demonstration. Ashok Dhawale told how different colored flags representing different ideologies led to the movement being an unprecedented success. On the first day of the Farmers Parliament, Mahila Kisan Sansad had a two hour session where it was discussed that women farmers who contribute more than half the share in agriculture, should get justice. Many of the widows gave their accounts on what lead to their husband’s suicide.
