February 1 saw an overnight addition to Delhi’s border with Haryana at Tikri as more than 2,000 iron nails were embedded in rows across the breadth of Rohtak Road on the Delhi side of the border. They were positioned to puncture the tyres of vehicles coming in from the Haryana side. Workers under the watch of police personnel were seen hooking iron rods between two rows of cement barriers on a flank of the main highway at the Singhu border to further restrict the movement of protesters agitating against the new farm laws at the site. As of February 1, there were several layers of security, two heavy layers of metal barricading; a layer of large stone boulders; followed by the layer of nails, and a layer of concrete barricades. The police was seen standing by the side of a road in the national capital, equipped with appear to be metal gloves covering their forearm - wrist to elbow. From steel coils to cement barriers, Singhu and Ghazipur protest sites were also heavily fortified by police as more and more people continued to join the stir. Watch the video to know more.
