Farmers Protest: Top Cop Directs Police To "Show More Aggression" At Singhu Border

Farmers Protest: Several farmer associations, mostly from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab, had called for a protest on February 13 to demand a law guaranteeing Minimum Support Price for crops.

As the Delhi Police prepares to stop protesting farmers from entering the national capital, a senior officer Tuesday directed personnel on ground that they "need not be defensive" if the agitators show aggression.

Special Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) Ravindra Yadav, who visited the fortified Singhu border last evening, told police personnel and paramilitary jawans deployed there that if the farmers manage to enter Delhi "our whole operation will fail".

He told the forces they need to act "logically" and by keeping their safety in mind.
