January 14

Today is Sankrant. I am sure friends in Dilli woke up, bathed, and went to the #FarmersProtest to stand with the farmers, partake langar.

Else, you see, if Farm Laws come into effect, Sankrant will only remain a date on the calendar, perhaps a restricted holiday, but we won’t know what the festival is about. Of course, our corporate masters shall give us big discounts on farm produce in shopping malls.

Thank you Angshuman Choudhury for asking me to elaborate a bit more on my post yesterday.
