Haryana Police invoked the National Security Act against farm leaders amidst ongoing protests at the Punjab-Haryana border. Farmers' attempts to breach barricades resulted in injuries to officers. Social media was reportedly used to incite disorder. The "Delhi Chalo" march seeks MSP guarantees and Swaminathan Committee Report implementation. Samyukta Kisan Morcha demanded a Murder case over a protester's death, announcing nationwide tractor marches and a Delhi Mahapanchayat.

Following a third meeting with the government late last night, protesting farmers have resolved to persist with their march towards Delhi while scheduling further discussions for Sunday. Concurrently, anticipation builds for a nationwide strike on Friday in solidarity with the farmers' cause. In response to the 'Bharat Bandh' called by the Samyukt Kisan Morcha and Central Trade Unions, unauthorised assemblies are prohibited in Noida and various locales of Gautam Budh Nagar district. While these organisations are distinct from the 'Delhi Chalo' movement, their objectives align closely. Advocating for a suspension of agricultural activities between 6 am and 4 pm, they urge farmers to stage road blockades nationwide.

Several major farmers’ unions have extended their support to the protesting farmer unions at Shambhu border and Khanauri border in Punjab, with the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Ugrahan) and BKU Dakaunda (Dhaner faction) announcing a ‘rail roko’ (stop trains) in the state on Thursday between 12 noon and 4 pm on Thursday, February 15. The Samyukt Kisan Morcha, an umbrella body of 37 farm unions, have also supported the ongoing protests. The protesters are demanding a minimum support price or MSP for their crops.

Haryana Police detain protestors at Shambhu border as chaos breaks out during farmers' movement towards Delhi to press for their various demands. The “Delhi Chalo" protest, initiated by farmers, commenced on Tuesday from Punjab's Fatehgarh Sahib. Massive security arrangements have been implemented on the borders of the national capital. To maintain law and order, the Delhi police have enacted Section 144, which prohibits the entry of tractor-trolleys and large assemblies. Visuals from various borders such as Gazipur, Shambhu, and Tikri depict the presence of barricades and barbed wires obstructing road access. Farmers from various parts of India began their Delhi Chalo protest on Tuesday amid comprehensive preparations by police in Haryana and Delhi, which have orders to stop them from entering the national capital. The Sanyukt Kisan Morcha (non-political) is leading the second leg of the farmer's protest demanding guaranteed minimum support price (MSP) for their crops.

Farmer leaders of the Sanyukt Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) paid obeisance to Shri Akal Takht Sahib before leaving for protest. In response to the farmers' 'Delhi Chalo' march scheduled for February 13, Section 144 has been enforced across Delhi, prohibiting large gatherings. The city's borders have been reinforced with concrete barriers and iron spikes to deter protester vehicles from entering the capital. These actions have disrupted traffic flow in border zones, inconveniencing commuters during Monday morning rush hours. Several farmer associations, mostly from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab, have called for the march on February 13 to demand a law guaranteeing MSP for their produce, one of the conditions they had set when they agreed to withdraw their agitation in 2021.
