Farmer protest: Tear gas in Patiala, tears in Delhi

The farmers began their march from Punjab on Tuesday amid stringent pre-emptive measures to not allow the farmers to cross any state border -- be it Punjab to Haryana or Haryana to Delhi. Concrete slabs and barbed wires have been placed on borders, nails have been laid on the roads to stop the protesters at any cost. The Delhi government, meanwhile, rejected the Centre's request to convert Bawana stadium into a makeshift jail in case the farmers come inside Delhi. AAP minister Kailash Gahlot said the demands of the farmers are genuine and every citizen is entitled to make a peaceful protest. The Haryana police started firing tear gas shells at the protesters as they reached the Shambhu border two hours after their march started. #FarmersProtest #ShambhuBorder #TearGasFired #ShambhuBorderFarmers #DelhiChaloMarch #DilliChalo #PolicePresence #ShambhuBorder #GhazipurBorder #Singhu #HeavyPoliceDeployed #DelhiPolice #PunjabPolice #HaryanaPolice #SinghuBorder #SinghuBorderTraffic #TrafficFarmersProtest #DelhiNoidaBorder #UPFarmers #MarchToParliament #TrafficJam #ProtestMovement ~PR.152~ED.102~
