New Delhi, Jul 21 (PTI) At least four farmers on their way to take part in the Kisan Mahapanchayat here on Tuesday were detained by Delhi Police at the Singhu border between Haryana and the national capital, sources said.
A day-long “Kisan Mahapanchayat” is being organised at Kisan Ghat in Delhi under the banner of “Desh Bachao Morcha” to protest against the proposed India-US trade deal.
Security remained tight at the border, with multiple layers of barricades and intensified vehicle checking in place, especially in the wake of Monday’s “Sansad Chalo” march organised by Cockroach Janta Party in Delhi.
A farmer from Haryana alleged that he and several others were detained near the Singhu border while attempting to enter Delhi to join the Mahapanchayat.
He claimed that the police did not allow them to proceed to Delhi and instead directed them to park their vehicles at the border and remain there. PTI BM BM RUK RUK
