The march which began yesterday aims to press demands on the center including the enactment of a law to guarantee a minimum support price (MSP) for crops. Hundreds of individuals riding trucks and tractors from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Punjab arrived in Delhi leading to huge traffic congestion on Delhi's borders.

Following this, authorities issued a traffic advisory for smooth traffic flow. However, they also urged commuters to travel via the metro to mitigate inconveniences caused by traffic diversions.
