Several political parties have extended their support for the Bharat Bandh, which is likely going to affect several services across the country, mainly Delhi-NCR.

The call for the Bharat Bandh by the farmer unions comes amid their several meetings with the Centre that couldn't break the deadlock. The farmers have camped outside as many as five borders across Delhi from almost two weeks demanding the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led government at the Centre to repeal the three farm reforms.
