In the view of the protest, the police beefed up the security to prevent any untoward incidents. They also removed the protestors on the highway dispersing the crowd which caused a huge traffic jam in the area.

Farmer unions on Monday announced a countrywide 'Chakka Jaam' on February 6 from 12 pm to 3 pm.
