According to the Haryana police, the farmers used sticks and stones to attack the security guards. Shubhkaran Singh, a 21-year-old Bhatinda farmer, lost his life on Wednesday in fighting at the Khanauri border between protesting farmers and security forces. Fights also resulted in the injuries of 12 police officers. The deceased had a head injury, according to H. S. Rekhi. Nevertheless, the post-mortem examination will determine the precise cause of his death. Officials claim that Shubhkaran Singh died from a bullet wound.
He was brought in dead, and at first glance, it seems that a bullet struck him. Only following a post-mortem will be able to determine the type of bullet, Rekhi stated.
Farmers near the border reported that in addition to tear gas shells, police also fired rubber bullets. According to the Haryana police, the farmers used sticks and stones to attack the security guards. Additionally, according to the police, after encircling the security guards stationed at the Khanauri border, the demonstrators doused their stubble in chili powder and lit it on fire. Balbir Singh, the Health Minister of Punjab and AAP leader, referred to the police action as the “murder of democracy.”
Singh died as a result of gunfire from police, according to Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal. Still, the cause of his death remains unconfirmed. Punjab is in mourning following the death of Maur (Bathinda) boy Shubhkaran Singh due to gunfire from Haryana police at the Khanauri border. This young man, the only sibling of two sisters, was killed by the conspiratorial double game of Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. On Punjabi territory, the police of another state are permitted to attack and murder Punjabis, and Bhagwant Mann is working with Haryana to target Punjabi farmers. Shots fired during a nonviolent protest are unprecedented in a democracy. In a post on X, Badal claimed that Bhagwant Mann was holding Shubhkaran Singh’s innocent blood.
Partap Singh Bajwa, a senior Congress leader, stated that Shubhkaran Singh died as a result of a rubber bullet shot by the police.
According to Bajwa’s statement, farmer Shubhkaran Singh of the village of Ballo in the district of Bathinda allegedly perished from a rubber bullet shot by the Haryana police while he was still within the jurisdiction of Punjab and peacefully protesting.
The farmers who were protesting had earlier gathered large equipment, including bulldozers and earthmovers. They were not permitted to travel on the highway, according to the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Balloh village in Bathinda, which is located roughly 15 kilometers from Rampura Phul city, was home to Shubhkaran Singh. He was described as a diligent contract farmer by his friend Pala.
He once worked as a contract farmer on twenty acres of land with his uncle, Charanjit Singh. Shubhkaran had animals of his own. He had dropped out of school.
