We've seen incidents wherein swords were used, so maybe it was tried on experimental basis at police station level. It's not approved to be part of anti-riot gear as we don't make an equipment part of it unless trials are done: Delhi Police Jt Commissioner on use of steel batons https://t.co/helYBEXpv4

The farmers unions have stand firm on their demand of repealing the 3 farm laws while the government has said the resolution to this can only be found through clause-by-clause discussion, After various rounds of talks with the farmers, the government has shown its intent of making amendments in the existing laws and have also put forward the proposal to hold the new reforms for 1.5 years, but farmer leaders have remained unshakeable from their demands. Farmers’ unions have said that they will not accept anything except repeal of three farm laws.
I'm surprised that when tractors were used, Police was attacked, barricades were broken on 26th no questions were raised. What did we do now? We've just strengthened barricading so that it's not broken again said Delhi Police Commissioner when asked about barricading at Delhi borders
I can't tell you what is that. Steel batons are not a part of Police weaponry: Delhi Police Commissioner SN Srivastava when asked if the metal batons (reportedly seen being carried by some Police personnel) have been taken back https://t.co/bEwIUdwveG

The 'Delhi Chalo' farmers' protest at border points of New Delhi has entered the 69th day today. Farmer unions have announced a countrywide 'chakka jam' on February 6 when they would block national and state highways for three hours in protest against the Internet ban in areas near their agitation sites, harassment allegedly meted out to them by the authorities and other issues. Thousands of farmers, especially from Punjab and Haryana, are staging a sit-in protest along Delhi borders. The protest started on November 26. The farmers are demanding a complete rollback of the new farm reform laws and a guarantee on the Minimum Support Price (MSP) system being retained. Multiple rounds of talks between the Centre and the farmers’ union leaders have ended in a stalemate. Protesting farmers fear that the new laws will dismantle the MSP system and corporatize farming. The Supreme Court had earlier ordered a stay on the implementation of these contentious laws, hoping it will end the protest, and formed a committee to resolve this issue, but farmer unions refused to present before the committee. According to the farmer unions the member of the committee were in support of three farm laws and are also pro-government.
