Punjab Rail Roko: Train Wheels to Stop on December 5! Farmers to Block Tracks in These 19 Districts.
For Punjabi rail passengers, December 5 would be a challenging day. In order to press for their demands, the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha (India) (KMM) has planned a significant plan to block railway tracks throughout the state. The Morcha will organize a two-hour symbolic ‘Rail Roko’ (Stop the Trains) demonstration on December 5, 2025, from 1 PM to 3 PM. As a result, trains will be halted at 26 points throughout the state’s 19 districts.
This announcement is a protest against the Bhagwant Mann government’s claimed forced sale of public assets, the removal of prepayment meters, and the rejection of the draft of the Electricity Amendment Bill 2025.
