\"54<\/div>\n
A total of 54 trains on the Ambala-Amritsar route<\/a> were cancelled on Saturday as farmers squatted on tracks at the Shambhu<\/a> railway station in Punjab’s Patiala district<\/a> for the fourth day, officials said. The protestors have been demanding the release of three farmers arrested by the Haryana Police<\/a> during the ongoing stir.
As many as 54 trains were cancelled on Saturday because of the farmers’ protest, railway officials said. <\/p>\n

The protest has affected the movement of 380 trains in the last three days, causing inconvenience to passengers, they added. <\/p>\n

The farmers have been protesting under the banner of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha<\/a> (Non-Political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha<\/a> (KMM) in Patiala district’s Shambhu. <\/p>\n

They began their protest for the release of arrested farmers on Wednesday by squatting on the tracks on the Ambala-Ludhiana-Amritsar route in Shambhu near the Punjab-Haryana border. <\/p>\n

Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said the protest will continue until the three farmers are released. The SKM (Non-Political) and the KMM are spearheading the ‘Delhi Chalo’ march by farmers to press the government to accept their demands, including legal guarantee of Minimum Support Price (MSP) for crops. <\/p>\n

The farmers have been staying put at the Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since February 13 when their march was stopped by the security forces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
