Chandigarh: At least 18 Haryana Police personnel, including a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) and women police officials, were injured on Sunday in Fatehabad district of Haryana when Delhi-bound Jat community protesters clashed with them, police said.

The police personnel were trying to stop them at a barricade to prevent them from moving towards Delhi. The clash took place on the Sirsa-Hisar-Delhi Highway near Dhani Gopal village in Fatehabad district, around 200 km from here when the protesters, who were on tractor-trolleys, were stopped. Police used force, including cane charge and lobbed teargas shells, as the protesters pelted stones.
