UP govt orders DMs, SSPs to end farmer protests

January 29, 2021 00:31

The Uttar Pradesh government has ordered all district magistrates (DMs) and senior superintendents of police (SSPs) to ensure the end of all the farmers' agitations in the state, government officials said.

Earlier in the day, the Ghaziabad District Administration has ordered those who are holding the sit-in protest without permission at the Ghazipur border (Delhi-Ghaziabad border) to vacate the area by late evening today, official sources said.

Ghazipur is one of the sites where protests against the farm laws are going on for nearly two months.

This comes after violence broke out in the national capital on January 26 during the farmers' tractor rally.

Several public and private properties were damaged in acts of vandalism by the protestors. -- ANI
