Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi said in a tweet on Friday.
The Punjab government has decided to give ₹2 lakh as compensation to 83 people who were arrested by the Delhi Police after a tractor rally against the Centre's farm laws turned this year.
The farmers had taken out a tractor march on January 26 in the national capital to highlight their two principal demands of a repeal of three new agri laws and a legal guarantee of minimum support prices.
However, the march took a violent turn as thousands of protesters broke through barriers, fought with the police, overturned vehicles and hoisted a religious flag from the ramparts of the iconic Red Fort.
