Called as ‘Farm Laws Wapas Jao’, the song has several videos and pictures of the farmers at protest site as they raise slogans and appeal to the government to take back the contentious farm laws.

In the description of the video, Sahil wrote, ”This is NOT a translation of the original Bella Ciao but just a rendition of it in Punjabi. Farmers from Punjab, Haryana, UP and across India are Protesting against the Farm Laws at the Delhi Border. This song is in solidarity with them.

Bella ciao is an Italian protest folk song that originated in the hardships of the mondina women, the paddy field workers in the late 19th century who sang it to protest against harsh working conditions in the paddy fields of North Italy. It was again popularized by the Netflix show Money Heist or La Casa de Papel”.
