The ongoing farmers' protest against the farm laws found an echo in a wedding in Uttar Pradesh's Amroha district.
Though it was a wedding ceremony, for many, it appeared to be a protest against the new farm laws.
While the groom Harmendra Singh drove a tractor to the venue of the wedding and also took the newlywed bride in the same, the wedding guests, who were also travelling in tractors, followed him carrying banners and posters supporting the ongoing agitation by the farmers.
Posters in support of the farm agitation were also pasted on walls, doors and pillars at the venue of the wedding. Even the wedding invitation mentioned 'No Farmer, No Food''.
The guests, who were present at the wedding, also raised slogans in support of the farmer's agitation.
According to reports, Sardar Pyare Singh, a resident of Shahjahanpur village in Amroha district, had fixed the marriage of his son Harmedra with a girl of Bacharayun village in the same district. The marriage was solemnised on Monday.

''Though we all wanted the marriage to be a grand event, everything changed after the agitation by the farmers began....we then decided that we would organise the marriage ceremony in such a way so as to show our solidarity with the agitation,'' Harmendra's elder brother said.
Thousands of farmers have been on a dharna on the borders of Delhi for over two and half months in protest against the farm laws.
