Protesting farmers called it a day after hours of clash with police on their way to Delhi today, declaring "ceasefire" and promising to "try again tomorrow".
For Delhi and its neighbouring states, it was a flashback to 2020-21 as thousands of farmers tried to make their way towards the national capital, clashing with the police at practically every state border.
The Haryana police went all out to stop them from entering the state, throwing all they had at the protesters -- drones carrying tear gas canisters, water cannons, cement barriers, sandbags and tyre deflators.
The farmers have said they have six months' worth of rations and diesel and won't back out till their demands are met. "It is ceasefire for today and we will try again tomorrow morning," said a farmer leader.
