Hyderabad: A photo allegedly showing a recent farmers' protest in Haryana has gone viral on social media. A Facebook user posted the photo along with a caption that read, "Nothing major then Kangana. Just a bunch of farmers protesting for their rights not too far from the national capital. How many of you saw them on your TV Screens? "
According to the article, the photo is from a farmers' protest rally that took place in Sikar in Rajasthan in 2017.
We also found some reports from September 2020 that said a farmers' protest had been organized recently in Haryana. According to these reports, during an ongoing protest, farmers' were lathi-charged at Pipli near Kurukshetra for defying prohibitory orders.
