Road opened from one side at Tiki border

After the route was agreed on Sunday evening, Delhi Police removed barricading from one side on the road coming from the Tiki border towards Delhi. The road has been cleared by removing barricades of cement and large containers of iron, about one kilometer ahead of the movement site. Simultaneously, the Delhi Police and CRPF personnel have also taken over the security system on the prescribed route. The police have placed a condition that no more than three people will sit on a tractor. Farmers’ organizations and police will spend time on Monday to decide other things.

Only Security Personnel On The Route

There will be no one but security forces and farmers during the tractor rally on January 26 on the route from Tikri to Delhi. According to a police officer, all the shops will be closed on the evening of 25 January. The caution has been taken so that vehicles and shops are not damaged if something goes wrong. The area where the farmers have gathered around the Tiki border is a residential area. Therefore, heavy security arrangements have been made here. In addition to the fixed route of the parade, a diversion plan has also been prepared on the surrounding roads.

1000 volunteers of Kisan Social Army will also be posted

One thousand Volunteers of Kisan Social Army will also be deployed for the tractor parade coming from Tikri Border to Delhi. This list will also be shared with the police. Ajit Singh, who is leading these volunteers, said, “Volunteers will be in dress code. Among them, apart from providing first aid, water and tea, there will also be tractor mechanics. We are also training them for this.”
