Tensions Escalate at Shambhu Border as Police Dismantle Barricades
Security has been tightened at the Haryana-Punjab Shambhu Border as police launched an early morning operation on Thursday, dismantling concrete barricades and clearing protest sites.
🚨 Bulldozers were deployed by Haryana Police to remove the roadblocks, intensifying tensions between farmers and the authorities.
On Wednesday evening, Punjab Police removed farmers from their protest site, signaling a shift in the state’s approach to the long-standing demonstrations over various demands.
📢 “Farmers cooperated well and left voluntarily,” claimed Patiala SSP Nanak Singh after overseeing the eviction.
🔹 “The entire road will be cleared and opened for traffic soon.”
🔹 The police ensured that no force was used, and farmers were transported back home by bus after proper warnings.
Several key farmer leaders, including Jagjit Singh Dallewal and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha leader Sarvan Singh Pandher, were detained.
💬 BKU Leader Rakesh Tikait strongly condemned the crackdown:
📢 “On one hand, the government is negotiating, and on the other, it is arresting farmers. We are ready for every struggle.”
💬 Congress MP Charanjit Singh Channi accused the government of betrayal:
📢 “Farmers were attacked from behind and deceived. The road was blocked by the government, not the farmers. They just want to reach Delhi.”
💬 BJP Leader Fatehjung Singh Bajwa slammed Punjab’s AAP government:
📢 “AAP played politics with farmers. They detained leaders like Dallewal and Pandher for their own political gains.”
🚧 Punjab Minister Harpal Singh Cheema justified the crackdown, saying the borders needed to be reopened for economic activity.
🔹 “Farmers’ demands are against the central government, not Punjab. They should protest in Delhi, not block Punjab’s roads.”
🔹 “Businesses are suffering, youth are unemployed, and drug addiction is rising. We need to restore normalcy.”
