Farmers of Punjab and Haryana in the country are on strike for MSP and their other demands. The most extreme form of protest is being seen in Haryana. The situation is such that the police have to fire tear gas shells to keep the farmers under control.
Seeing the increasing action of the police, farmers have also started gathering in large numbers. If media reports are to be believed, the police have also started detaining some farmer leaders. Angered by the arrest of their leaders, some farmers have pelted stones.
