At Bahadurgarh on the outskirts of Delhi, farmers have been camping against the new farm laws for around 80 days. Help and ration is pouring in from nearby villages. While questions have been raised over the funding of farmers' agitation, protesting farmers here say they are spending from their own pockets, and bringing food supplies from their homes to support the agitation. Every day, milk, ghee, vegetables, and other essentials are brought in by farmers and volunteers prepare the food. While it is not cheap, farmers say they will keep contributing and the agitation will go on till laws are repealed. Anjali Ojha reports
