A sub-inspector in Haryana Railway Police (GRP), who was deployed at Shambhu border following the farmers’ ‘Dilli Chalo’ march, passed away due to health issues, police said on Saturday.

According to officials, Hiralal’s (52) health suddenly worsened while on duty on Friday. He was immediately taken to Ambala civil hospital but despite all the efforts of the doctors, he could not be saved.

Haryana DGP Shatrujit Kapoor expressed deep gloom over the demise of sub-inspector Hiralal.

The security forces deployed at the Shambhu Border continued to resist the agitating farmers attempting to enter the national capital as the protests entered the fifth day on Saturday.

Hundreds of farmers and some journalists have been injured as the protestors clashed with the police many a time trying to break the multi-layer barricades.

The protesting farmers have been camping at the border points since February 13.

A third round of talks with the central government ended in a stalemate on Thursday, amid the standoff between the protestors and security personnel on the Punjab-Haryana border.
