AMBALA, India – A key highway in Ambala, Haryana, was obstructed by protesters on Tuesday, who were demanding the registration of a legal case against Gursimran Singh Mand. The demonstration, which saw participants gather near Gurdwara Panjokhra Sahib, disrupted traffic and prompted a police response.

The protesters specifically called for authorities to take action against Mand, described as an anti-Khalistani figure. They expressed frustration over what they termed a consistent failure by the administration to address their concerns, despite numerous representations made on the matter.

The gathering at Gurdwara Panjokhra Sahib escalated into a blockade of the adjacent highway. In response to the disruption, Ambala Police deployed personnel to the site with the objective of clearing the road and restoring normal traffic flow.

The incident highlights ongoing tensions and public demands for accountability in the region, with protesters asserting that their grievances have not been adequately addressed through official channels.
