In the video, he revealed the political agenda saying, "The popularity of Modi is at its peak, His graph has gone up because of Ram Mandir. We have less time (2024 Lok Sabha Elections). We have to bring the graph of Modi down".

The video comes ahead of the third round of talks between farmer unions and the Centre is scheduled to take place on Thursday. The Centre, represented by ministers Arjun Munda, Piyush Goyal, and Nityanand Rai, may propose the formation of a new committee to address various pending issues, including the legal assurance for crop procurement at Minimum Support Prices (MSP).

However, protesters have warned of resorting to force to breach barricades erected in Haryana and march towards Delhi if the government fails to meet their demands.

Long traffic jams were seen on Wednesday at the Delhi-Ghaziabad border due to the farmers' protest and security checks put in place by the authorities.

The farmers have put forth 12 demands before the central government for which they're marching to Delhi. The protest this time has been called by Sanyukt Kisan Morcha and Punjab Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee led by farmer union leaders Jagjeet Singh Dallewal and Sarwan Singh Pandher.

According to the protesting farmers, the centre promised them better crop prices, after which they ended the 2021 protest. They are demanding to enact a law guaranteeing a minimum support price (MSP) for all crops, as recommended by the Swaminathan Commission report.
