The SAD, which was part of the NDA government at the Centre break ties with BJP over the farm laws.

Key routes at Delhi's borders with Haryana and Uttar Pradesh remained choked as thousands of farmers held demonstrations for the eleventh consecutive day in their quest to get the three farm laws abolished.

The protest by farmers agitating against the three agriculture laws passed by the Centre entered its eleventh day on Sunday with demonstrations in Sant Nirankari Samagam ground in Burari on the outskirts of Delhi and other border areas.Meanwhile, a nationwide shutdown has been called by the protesting farmers on December 8.
