The protesting farmers have decided to put their 'Delhi Chalo' march on hold for two days.
This comes after a youth protester was killed allegedly in police firing at the Punjab-Haryana border of Khanauri.
Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said the Modi government must know that the agitation will not stop. He said that the farmers will hold discussions on the Khanauri incident and clarify future course of action later.
Meanwhile, Congress has demanded an FIR against Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij over the protester's death.
Congress leader Partap Singh Bajwa said that he has seen a video which showed that the victim was shot in the back of the head. Calling the police action unprovoked, the Congress leader said the protesters were in Punjab territory and none of them didn’t do anything wrong.
"It is unfortunate that a 23-year-old youth Subhkaran Singh from Bathinda district was killed in police firing at Khanauri border. I have seen the video which showed he was shot in the back of the head," said Bajwa.
"I demand that a case be filed against Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij in a police station in Punjab," added Bajwa.
The deceased farmer was identified as Subhkaran Singh who was in his early 20s. Singh was a resident of Baloke village in Punjab's Bathinda district.
Patiala-based Rajindra Hospital's medical superintendent H S Rekhi told reporters that three people, one of them dead, were brought to the hospital from Khanauri. The deceased had an injury to his head and the other two are stable, Rekhi said.
