The tractor rally, yesterday, meant to highlight demands of the farmers unions quickly took a violent turn as the protesters refused to adhere to the regulations of the police.
The violent mob also caused destruction inside the Red Fort. A video has been shared by news media outlet ANI, showing broken shards of glass, scattered pieces of paper and vandalised ticket counter seen at the Red Fort in Delhi.
Over 300 police personnel were injured in the violence that ensued along with the rally. The video footages showed protesters attacking the police personnel with lathis and swords in hands. They were also seen ramming their tractors in the buses parked by police in the ITO area of the Capital.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
