The Shambhu crossing stays shut this morning till evening - farm groups plus the united justice front are holding a rally. Cops in Haryana rerouted cars, with detours made through half a dozen different roads instead.
The Shambhu border on the Rajpura-Ambala-Delhi highway is closed from 7 AM to 6 PM on November 14, 2025, due to the Qaumi Insaaf Morcha and farmers’ organisations’ march towards Delhi.
Because of a protest heading to the Shambhu checkpoint on Nov 14, the crossing between Punjab and Haryana will stay shut from 7 AM till 5 PM today. This shutdown comes as Haryana cops take steps ahead of a large gathering organized by several farming groups along with the Samyukt Insaaf Morcha.
To keep vehicles moving, Haryana Police began rerouting traffic at 5 AM. As a result, travelers are being asked to use one of these five alternative paths instead
- Fatehgarh Sahib–Ladhowal–Airforce Chowk Mohali–Dera Bassi–Ambala
- Rajpura–Banur–Zirakpur (Chhat Lights)–Dera Bassi–Ambala
- Rajpura–Ghanour–Ambala (Delhi National Highway)
- Patiala–Ghanour–Ambala (Delhi National Highway)
- Budhlada–Manoli–Surat–Lehli–Laldu–Ambala (only for small vehicles)
Chance of cars getting stuck in long lines
Officials say there’s a big chance of road blockages, mostly near Rajpura town or along the route to Zirakpur. Cops will be posted heavily at every split point so cars move smoothly while keeping things under control.
The authorities asked folks to go along with road changes, skip non-essential trips - while keeping up with traffic news now and then. These moves aim to keep things calm and people safe when the demonstration happens.
People going to Ambala or crossing at Shambhu should map out their way early - also, stick to what cops say so things go smooth.
