BKU divided over continuing protest; police ask to vacate Ghazipur site

- Bharatiya Kisan Union(BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait said that he would rather commit suicide than leave and end the protest against the farm laws, setting the stage for a confrontation with security personnel. Thousands of farmers from the BKU are camping at the protest site since November 28. Heavy security force presence was visible near the camp site, which faces a midnight deadline to vacate, even as it faced frequent power cuts in the evening. However, the BKU appeared to be divided on the future course of action with Naresh Tikait, brother of Rakesh, saying the protest will get over. Watch the full video for more details.
