As soon as he turned off the cannon, several opposing farmers who were being aimed by it pushed ahead. The happening is taken place near Kurukshetra. At the Shambhu border, the Haryana Police and Punjab protesters in their tractor-trolleys encountered each other on a bridge over the Ghaggar River. While police made announcements asking the farmers on the Punjab side of the interstate border to disband, the farmers decided to move forward as part of their march to Delhi.
The Haryana Police had blocked the Amritsar-Delhi highway at this boundary end with trucks to stop farmers’ tractor-trolleys. Regardless, the farmers threw some of the barricades into the river and were also seen moving the trucks. While protesters have managed to backstab a few barricades, they have been encountered with police water cannons and tear gas again at Karnal. Meanwhile, the Delhi Police has whined up security at its border with Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
