Farmers protest Day 3: Ryots stay put at Punjab-Haryana border; talks with ministers begin in Chandigarh

New Indian Express  

Three Union ministers will meet farmer leaders in Chandigarh on Thursday for another round of talks as the faceoff between the protesting ryots and police at the Punjab-Haryana border entered its third day. Since the farmers of Punjab and Haryana began their 'Delhi Chalo' march towards the national capital on Tuesday morning, there has been repeated clashes with the security personnel, with members of both sides sustaining injuries. On Wednesday, at the Shambhu border point between Punjab-Haryana near Ambala city, security personnel used drone tear smoke launchers to release numerous tear gas shells whenever a group of farmers moved towards the multi-layer barricades. On Tuesday, when farmers tried to shift cement barriers at Shambhu with their tractors, attempting to push towards Delhi, security personnel hurled rubber bullets and tear gas shells at them, leading to at least 100 protesters sustaining injuries.
