Singer and actor Ammy Virk has been sharing various snippets from the protest site and constantly expressing his solidarity with the farmers. Another singer Jazzy B has been very vocal with his support for the protest as well.

Actress and model Himanshi Khurana, Gippy Grewal, who is also a singer and actor, have also shared video clips from the peaceful protests and expressed their solidarity. Most of these celebrities have been standing with the farmers from the month of September when the newly introduced farm bills were passed by Parliament.

While farmers from several corners of the country have spoken against it, the protests to revoke the laws are being led by farmers from Punjab and Haryana. The peasants have been demonstrating against the bills continuously for the past few months and blocking highways. Currently, the farmers have camped along at least five major highways on the outskirts of New Delhi and have said that they won't leave until the central government rolls back the laws.

However, a meeting between the cabinet ministers and leaders of protesting farmer unions on Tuesday failed to yield a solution. Leaders of the farmer unions will meet with the government representative again for round 2 of talks.
