On January 29, violence was reported at the Singhu border after a group claiming to be locals of the area tried to uproot the tents of farmers who were protesting there. Police officials resorted to lathi-charge and deployed tear gas to quell stone-pelting.

Several demonstrators from within Singhu's sit-in protest site were injured in the conflict and they allege that the police did little to control the situation. Meanwhile, police officials have been placing new barricades around the protest sites.
