They were not allowed to cross YPS Chowk in Patiala city as police had done barricading to prevent the protest march. Around 4pm, after talks failed between the protesters and duty magistrate, police resorted to a lathi-charge and left some protesters injured. The protestors later sat at the YPS Chowk for indefinite period.
