We will not quarrel, but celebrate R-Day: Farmer leader Rakesh Tikait Last Updated : 18 Jan 2021 03:26:38 PM IST The farmers protesting against the new Central farm laws have announced a 'Tractor March' on Republic Day.

"We are not going to the national capital to fight. We will celebrate the R-Day in Delhi, earlier we used to celebrate it in the fields and villages. Now we are here in Delhi so we will celebrate the day here," the BKU spokesperson added.The Delhi Police had filed a petition in the Supreme Court to ban the 'Tractor March' by the farmers on January 26. They had said that law and order could be affected if the march is allowed on Republic Day.During the SC hearing, it said the entry of farmers into Delhi is a law and order issue and who are allowed to come to Delhi or not is for the Delhi Police to decide.However, he farmers have said they would take out a parade on January 26 on Outer Ring Road.
