Eight buses and 17 private vehicles were vandalised, the police said. We will not stop till we reach our goal - the repeal of the three farm laws,' another farmer said. 'We managed to reach the fort even though they tried to stop us. We will go back now,' one of the farmers told NDTV at the Red Fort.

'We came here to deliver a message to the Modi government, our job is done. But many are still thronging the Ramlila grounds outside the fort. The police have managed to push out protesters from inside the fort. Thousands of others, waving the national flag, stood at the huge gates of the fort. Repeated attempts were made to hoist flags on the fort's domes as well. Visuals from the Red Fort showed farmers hoisting a sacred flag of Sikhs at a second flagpole. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation shut the gates at several metro stations. The other flashpoint was Nangloi, where the police used teargas shells. A bus was vandalized in nearby Akshardham, where the police clashed with protesters. A farmer died there as a tractor on way to the Old City overturned, the police said. Violence broke out at central Delhi's ITO, where the police headquarters is located. Dramatic visuals showed farmers breaching barriers at the Singhu border, the epicentre of protests against the farm laws that started on November 26. By 8 am, thousands entered the national capital on foot. But the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee refused to stick to the route. The Delhi Police had allowed a rally with a fixed route and time. Internet has been suspended in parts of the National Capital Region - including Delhi and parts of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. Punjab and Haryana have been placed under high alert.
