Shambhu Border (Punjab), December 08 (ANI): Farmers gathered at Shambhu Border with several demands including legal guarantee of MSP. Security forces have been deployed in large numbers to maintain law and order situation. Meanwhile, protesters also came prepared with protective gears and flags to continue protest. Protesters can be seen wearing protective glasses and holding ‘Lathis’ in their hands. Verbal exchange between security forces and the protesters was witnessed at protest site. Security personnel refused to give way to protesters unless they show their respective permissions. Tear gas was used by security forces to disperse the protester at Shambhu Boarder. Farmer leader, Sarwan Singh Pandher said, “The ‘Jattha’ of our 101 farmers and labourers have reached. We have already issued the list, if they (the police) have decided that they will check the IDs first before allowing us to move, they should tell us we will cooperate with that. We have shown the discipline and will continue to be so… They are using tear gas more today, as the wind direction is towards us. We are ready for any kind of sacrifice… It’s the PM who has the solution for our problems, either he does it or let us march to Delhi.”
