Lathi Charge: Farmers broke barricades and entered Chandigarh from Mohali; Rajewal asked, “Why is Haryana Police in Punjab?”
When the demonstrators broke over the barricades, Chandigarh’s SSP Kawardeep Kaur, who had gone to the entrance to stop them, ordered a Lathi Charge.
Students at Punjab University in Chandigarh are furious and demand that the date of senior selection be announced. Every route that connects the border between Chandigarh and Mohali has been closed. Parents who pick up their kids from school are often stuck as a result.
After pushing and shoving with the police, students smashed through Gate Number 1 in front of PGI. The students continued notwithstanding the presence of SSP Kawardeep Kaur from Chandigarh. The demonstrators who had breached the barricade were then subject to a Lathi Charge by the police.
The students had already gained entry by breaking through the same gate. They got into a fight with the police during this period. But now Gate Number 1 is fully operational. Nihang Sikhs are among the students and demonstrators entering the university from this location.
At Phase 6, the Mohali-Chandigarh boundary, farmers have broken through the police wall. They are currently moving towards Chandigarh from Panjab University’s (PU) side. At first, the cops made an unsuccessful attempt to halt them. Balvir Rajewal, a farmer leader, questioned the purpose of the Haryana Police’s presence in Mohali.
The police have set up a barricade at YPS Chowk in Mohali to impede access to Chandigarh. The police have sealed the area from all four sides because they believe there may be a jam there.
Even a judge’s vehicle was prevented from entering Chandigarh by the Mohali police. When the driver of the automobile got out and claimed that the vehicle belonged to a judge, the Chandigarh Police did not permit it. The driver then drove the vehicle back.
The supporters were told to stop where they were when they saw the police arrangements, but they began a sit-in instead. On Sunday night, the students caused a commotion and persisted in their sit-in protest at the campus entrance until late at night. The university has announced a two-day holiday for today (November 10) and tomorrow in response to the student protest. In support of the students’ demand, farmers and numerous political parties are participating in the demonstration.
