A police officer was injured Friday in a pitched battle between protesting farmers - trying to march to join others on the Punjab-Haryana border - and cops in Khedi Chwpata in Hisar district.
The Samyukt Kisan Morcha - an umbrella organisation of farmer unions not directly linked to those leading this round of protests - has rejected a five-year contract to buy three types of pulses, maize, and cotton at the old MSP.
