The protesting farmers had planned to enter Delhi on December 6, 2024, but suspended their march after police fired tear gas to disperse the gathering.The ‘Delhi Chalo’ protest march resumed on Sunday but was halted again due to similar police action.”The alleged farmers and their farmer unions have blocked the national highway at the entry point of Punjab, i.e., Shambhu, for more than one year and recently blocked national and state highways across Punjab at various locations on October 24, 2024,” news agency PTI quoted lines from the plea.The plea further alleged that the blockage of highways posed a threat to national security, emphasizing that the entire Army movement toward the northern borders of the country passes through Punjab.
