Ambala, September 23
The police used water cannons and mild force to stop Punjab farmers from entering Haryana after sealing the inter-state border on the NH-44 here today.
Led by Bains brothers — Simarjit Singh and Balwinder Singh Bains, MLAs from the Lok Insaaf Party from Ludhiana — the farmers, protesting against the controversial farm Bills cleared by Parliament recently, were riding motorcycles and were on their way to Delhi when they were stopped from entering Haryana at the Shambhu border.
Following the protest, the busy highway remained blocked for traffic for a couple of hours and long queues of vehicles could be seen stranded on the highway, which connects major parts of Punjab with Haryana and Delhi. — TNS
