Violent tractor rally leaves 300 police personnel injured
28 January 2021
At least 300 police personnel were injures in the violence let loose by protestors in the name of tractor rally in the national capital on Republic Day. Protestors targeted police with sticks and other crude weapons and even tried to run over them with their tractors.
Clashes broke out at several places, including Red Fort and ITO, Mukarba Chowk, Nangloi and other areas as protestors removed all barricades to enter uncharted routes in defiance of authority.
The Delhi Police have arrested 200 people in connection with the violence, and 22 FIRs have been filed so far. Police have also detained over 300 people in connection with Tuesday’s violence at several places in Delhi.
Dubai: Protesting farmers in India were locked in a pitched battle with the police in Delhi on January 26, raising questions about where the agitation is heading.
Hundreds of protesters marched to the Red Fort last week and at one point the Nishan Sahib, a Sikh religious flag, was hoisted atop one of the domes at the 17th century, red sandstone edifice.
Will it mark a departure from the largely peaceful demonstrations against the government which began in November 2020 when 40 farmers’ unions formed the Samyukta Kissan Morcha (Joint Farmers Front)? They are demanding a complete rollback of three contentious new laws in the latest farm legislations introduced by the federal government.
