Bathinda: A 36-year-old farmer died by suicide after alleged consuming a poisonous substance at his home in Diwana village, Barnala district, on Wednesday.

Chamkaur Singh, the Barnala president of the farmer organisation, demanded that the state govt waive off Harwinder's debt and provide compensation to his family. Police said legal action was being taken under section 195 (unnatural death) of BNSS.MSID:: 131633972 413 |
