Book excerpt: The Farmer’s protest witnessed in the Indian subcontinent shook the foundations of a tyrannical regime reminiscent of ruthless Rulers of yore, possessing searing qualities, spreading violence,attempting to instil dread in every soul, thereby rendering the victims numb with fear and an inability to retort in any manner. Unfettered by the autocratic approach, the grit, determination and unity amongst the righteous farmers threw back the shackles of injustice, brazenly brushed off any fear and reinstated their fight for their Rights. The only difference visible is that Knowledge of law and self-respect have replaced arms and weaponry in this battle, although it was not entirely discarded. The undaunted display of strength and unity by farmers, whose existence was earlier marked by docility, rekindled the Revolutionist within us. A typical day in India is marked by protests and dharnas with social activists voicing their rights, which gradually drowns in the cacophony of political debates, slogans and cannon attacks by the police, who have reduced themselves from being the ‘protectors’ of law to being the ‘puppets’ of the reigning Government. The Farmers protest of 2020 transformed this usual perception, grabbed the attention of every citizen who wilfully would shrug off any controversies by keeping a safe distance from protestors and garnered global attention from celebrities & social activists about the atrocities meted out to them. Every attempt was made to curb the movement including blatant violation of democratic and constitutional rights, betrayal of trusts, unwarranted arrests, which remains unreported till date. This book traces firsthand information of my experiences living with the farmers & their families in the protest camps at the city borders, birth of a conscious citizen, an Observer, a Transformist within me and the tryst with destiny to venture out of the ‘comfort’ zone and enter the ‘courage’ zone to be a part of a historical moment in India and foster the feeling of brotherhood amongst the farmers.
