Over 2,000 Police Deployed Along NH-48
Bharatiya Kisan Union (Rajewal) chief Balbir Rajewal said that they will block Delhi-Jaipur road on December 12.
The farmers' union chief also announced that they will stage a sit-in protest in front of District Collector offices, houses of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, and block toll plazas on December 14. He said they will not stop trains. The farmer leader also claimed that the number of farmers coming here is increasing.
Meanwhile, the Bhartiya Kisan Union (Bhanu) [BKU(B)] has approached the Supreme Court against the three farm laws passed by the Central government, claiming the laws will make farmers 'vulnerable to corporate greed'.
Around 2,000 police personnel have been deployed at various points along NH-48 on December 12 to ensure law and order is maintained and there is no disruption to traffic movement. The District Magistrate of Gurugram Amit Khatri has appointed 68 Duty Magistrates at multiple locations in the district. Police officials have been asked to intensify patrolling in all the sensitive locations, especially in border areas and Kherki Daula toll plaza so as to prevent any untoward incident.
Farmers have also planned state/local level actions (protests) on December 14, 2020.
