Punjab Farmers Rumble: Tractor Rally Targets Land Pooling Policy
Farmers under the Samyukt Kisan Morcha banner are gearing up for a major show of strength. A massive tractor rally is planned across 116 Punjab villages on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, to protest the state’s controversial Land Pooling Policy.
The demonstration, expected to continue until late afternoon, will see the largest gathering in Ludhiana. This district is a focal point of the policy, with significant land earmarked for residential and industrial development.
Farmers are deeply concerned about the impact of the policy on their livelihoods and land ownership. They allege unfair compensation and a lack of transparency in the acquisition process.
The rally represents a significant escalation of farmer discontent. It highlights the ongoing tension between the state government’s development plans and the concerns of the agrarian community. The outcome will likely influence future land acquisition policies across the state and potentially impact similar initiatives nationwide.
