For the first time, a year-long Farmers\u2019 Protest in the post- liberalization phase questioned the economic reforms agenda. The main thrust was that the State was leveraging public resources for private profit and giving impetus to ill-founded and unsustainable development under the banner of the \u2018Second Green Revolution.\u2019 The Three Farm Acts were seen as having a direct impact on the farmers\u2019 livelihood, the food security of the people living on the margins, and the country\u2019s food sovereignty. The protest was unique in many ways as it was a conglomerate of 32 ideologically competing organizations and a broad-based engagement of people from different socio-economic and religious backgrounds. The movement stimulated the creative impulse of Punjabi society with a large number of singers and artists who passionately voiced more than a hundred verses to shape a discourse of anti-centrism. \u2013 \u201cKhichla Jatta, Khich Tyaari, Pecha Pai Gaya Centre Naal\u201d (Pull up your socks, as we have locked horns with the Centre)<\/p><p>Pramod Kumar is Director, Institute for Development and Communication (IDC), Chandigarh.
