Bollywood actor Swara Bhaskar has been actively supporting the ongoing farmers’ protests over the new farm laws in India through her social media accounts. On Thursday, she joined the agitation by attending the ongoing demonstration at New Delhi's Singhu border.


Swara Bhaskar showed up at the protest site to show her solidarity with the farm organisations protesting at New Delhi's border areas to step up pressure on the government to repeal the three newly-enacted agriculture bills.

The 32-year-old actor shared on Twitter, “A humbling day, to see the grit, resolve and determination of protesting farmers and the elderly at #SinghuBorder #FarmersProtests.”
