Thousands of farmers were expected to enter the national capital on their tractors under heavy security on Republic Day today, even as they announced a foot march to Parliament on February 1, when the annual Budget is presented, to press for their demands including a repeal of the three new agriculture laws. Police had deployed heavy security in view of the unprecedented ‘Kisan Gantantra Parade’ that will move into Delhi from three border points — Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur (UP Gate). The farmer unions protesting for nearly two months against the three new Central farm laws said their tractor parade will start only after the official Republic Day parade on Rajpath concludes. They claimed around two lakh tractors are expected to participate in the parade in a show of strength and support.
However, on Tuesday morning appeared a massive twist. Despite permissions for tractor march given, group of agitating farmers on Tuesday morning broke police barricade at Singhu and Tikri border points of the national capital as they forced their way in the city. The rally was earlier permitted to pass through Nangloi, Baprola Village, Najafgarh, Jharoda border, Rohtak bypass, and Asoda toll plaza.
Officials said that security personnel had tried to convince the farmers that they have the permission to hold their tractor parade in Delhi after the Republic Day parade at the Rajpath concludes. “But some groups of farmers did not relent and started moving towards the Outer Ring Road breaking police barricades,” an official said.
Here are all the updates of today’s demonstration:
