Baljeet Kaur loves Punjabi singers Kanwal Gerewal and Babbu Mann and their soulful music. Gerewal’s new song “Nahi Mukya Ghol Kisani” has worked as a therapy for the 28-year-old farmer leader from Punjab, who has been protesting, along with lakhs of farmers against the three farm laws passed by the Central government in September last year.
On November 19, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi made the announcement of repealing the three contentious farm laws, Baljeet Kaur was preparing for a weekly meeting with her colleagues to chalk out plans for their march to Parliament on the first-year anniversary of the farm protests.
