As the farmers protest completes 200 days on Saturday, farmers have planned to gather in significant numbers to mark this milestone at Shambhu border today.

Olympian Vinesh Phogat is expected to join them. The protests are planned to take place at the Khanauri, Shambhu, and Ratanpura borders.

Farmers have been stationed at the Shambhu border since February 13, after authorities prevented their march to Delhi. The protesters are demanding a legal guarantee for the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for all crops, among other key issues.

Phogat will be honoured by the farmers during the day's events.
