Haryana’s borders with Punjab have been sealed by the authorities with concrete blocks, sandbags, barbed wires, and anti-riot vehicles, at Shambhu near Ambala district. And in order to stop the farmers’ march to Delhi, planned to take place on Tuesday, February 13, elaborate arrangements have also been made to seal the borders with Punjab at Jind and Fatehabad districts.

BSF and RAF personnel have also been deployed on the Shambhu border, along with increasing security at Ambala and the Ambala-Kaithal Bypass, ahead of the farmers’ call.

In addition to all these measures for blocking the borders, parts of Haryana are also facing internet shutdown. The Haryana government has banned internet in seven districts, namely, Ambala, Jind, Kurukshetra, Hisar, Kaithal, Fatehabad, and Sirsa. Section 144 has been imposed in Panchkula.
