Claim: Sikh farmers carrying swords, sticks and chanting 'Khalistan zindabad' in the ongoing protest against farm bills.
Fact-check: 2016 rally video by Sikh groups is now shared as the farmers' protest over the new farm bills - FACTLY
Verdict: video shared in the post is an old one. this video shows a rally conducted by a large group of sikh men in 2016. this rally was conducted in protest of the lalkar rally planned by akhila bharatiya hindu suraksha samiti  in amritsar. this video has nothing to do with the ongoing farmers protest over the new farm bills. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
