Social media is filled with posts claiming farmers protesting in Delhi unfurled Khalistani flag at the Red Fort and removed the Indian National flag. The Logical Indian Fact Check team debunks the claim.
On January 26, 2021, farmers held massive tractor rally in Delhi to show their aggression against the three contentious farm bills passed by the government of India on September 28, 2020.
