Noida, March 20 -- A group of farmers, under the banner of the Sanyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), staged a protest at Zero Point in Greater Noida on Wednesday, demanding increased compensation for the land they provided for development projects.

Although traffic police had anticipated congestion near Zero Point due to the scheduled protest, senior traffic officers reported that the traffic flow remained unaffected on the expressway.

Lakhan Singh Yadav, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic), said a team was deployed near Zero Point. "The farmers protested under the loop, so traffic movement remained smooth on both the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway and the Yamuna Expressway," he explained.

The farmers said their demands remain unaddressed. "...
