Jalandhar: Chaos prevailed at the Punjab-Haryana Shambu border on Tuesday (February 13) afternoon, after the Haryana police fired tear gas at protesting farmers.
The farmers are trying to reach the national capital for their ‘Delhi Chalo’ protest, and were breaking and removing barricades at the border when the police fired tear gas at them.
Farmers on a long cavalcade of over 3,000 tractor trailers were seen running helter-skelter to save themselves at the Shambu border, on the Punjab side.
The Indian National Congress led by Mallikarjun Kharge lashed out at the Modi government for laying concertina wires and arranging drones, tear gas, nails and guns to counter the farmers.
Meanwhile from the Punjab Congress, MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira also went live on Facebook and announced that he will be proceeding towards the Shambu border to support the farmers’ agitation.
“This is extreme cruelty with farmers who not only made India food sufficient, but remember its their sons who protect the borders in defence forces.
