Abstract
ABSTRACT The Kisan Andolan (2020–21) was a unique protest in independent India that kept the struggle at high pitch for 13 months girding Delhi at all its borders. Besides the protesting farmers, the general populace too frequented the protest sites in huge numbers. It was much akin to doing pilgrimage and of participation in the peoples’ struggle. The top pop stars of the Punjabi music industry were active participants in entertaining the protesting masses and also writing and singing the protest songs. An attempt is made here to present their perspective on the kisan andolan revolving around four themes: the Indian state, peasants’ self-perception, issues involved and the protest site.
