INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
NEW DELHI: Life was disrupted in several parts of the country on Tuesday as shops and commercial establishments stayed closed, transport was
as usual during the pan-India shutdown, backed by about 15 Opposition parties and several trade unions
The major impact of the protests, which were peaceful, was felt not only in Punjab, Haryana and Delhi, but also in Odisha, Maharashtra,
when the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) alleged that the Delhi Police had put chief minister Arvind Kejriwal under house arrest
City police denied the claim but the party stuck to its guns and said the move was a response to Mr Kejriwal meeting protesting farmers at
the Singhu border, the main access point for those coming to the city from Punjab
