However, things took an ugly turn when violence broke out in parts of the national capital. 

At Delhi's Ghazipur border area, Security personnel fired tear gas shells and lathicharged farmers after they tried to break down the barricades using tractors.

Chaos turned into rage as Nihangs drew swords to scare the police personnel from resorting to lathi charge.
