Punjab and Haryana High Court orders Haryana and Punjab governments to remove barricades at Shambhu border within a week due to decreased farmer protests.

The Punjab and Haryana High Court has ordered the Haryana government to remove barricades at the Shambhu border near Ambala within a week, following a decrease in the number of protesting farmers. The court also instructed the Punjab government to remove any barricading on their side, and stated that in case of any law and order situation, it can take preventive action as per law. The border had been closed since 13 February when farmers began camping there to resume their march to Delhi; however, with only 400-450 farmers remaining, the court deemed it safe to open the border.
