Farmers’ protest: Punjab warns Haryana to not fly drones in its jurisdiction

Chandigarh: Punjab has objected to Haryana using drones to fire tear gas shells at farmers agitating in its territory at the Shambhu border.

Patiala Deputy Commissioner Shaukat Ahmad Parray has written a letter to the Ambala Deputy Commissioner asking him not to send his drones inside Punjab at the Shambhu border.

The Haryana Police had on Tuesday deployed drones to fire tear gas shells to disperse farmers who were trying to break through barricades as they marched towards Delhi to mount pressure on the Centre over various demands.
