The video discusses the violent turn of a peaceful farmer protest in India, which was initially focused on new farm laws. The protesters, led by the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee (KMSC), breached police barricades and entered Delhi, resulting in clashes with police and violence from both sides. The protesters claimed to be hoisting the Nishaan Saheb flag, a symbol of Sikh protests, not the Khalistani flag, contrary to rumors spread by some media channels and trolls on social media.
The video also highlights the controversial role of Punjabi actor Deep Sidhu, who claimed responsibility for hoisting the Nishaan Saheb flag. Sidhu's actions were not supported by all farmers present at the protest, with many of them asking him to leave the Red Fort. Sidhu is also known for his controversial statements and alleged connection to BJP, which has led some farm union leaders to label him a BJP person.
The video also touches on the police's role in the incident. While the police were present at the start of the protest, they were absent when the protesters entered the Red Fort. Some videos showed policemen watching the incident unfold without intervening. This led to accusations that the police had let the protesters enter the Red Fort and did not take action against them.
The video concludes by suggesting that the violent turn of the protest was a government conspiracy to stifle the protesters and belittle them in the media. It also raises questions about who would gain from the protest turning violent and who would lose, and encourages viewers to share the video to spread awareness about the events.
