In this state,despite Chief Minister Amarinder Singh's appeal to not damage telecom infrastructure in the state,agitationists supporting
Kissan agitation continued to stop them launch attack against telecom infrastructure in Punjab.

Already  more than 176 signal transmitting sites were  vandalised in the last 24 hours,it is learnt.

While firms belonging to billionaires Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani do not procure foodgrains from farmers, the narrative that new farm laws are to benefit them has made them easy targets, with protesting farmers in different places in Punjab having vandalised and damaged Reliance Jio towers, snapping connectivity.

As many as 176 towers have been damaged since Saturday, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter said.

This has taken the total number of 176 telecom tower sites damaged to 1,411, it is learnt.Incidents of snapping of power lines to attempts to axe the towers have been reported from different parts of Punjab.

"Site managers are slapped and abused for trying to persuade protestors from damaging sites," police said on Monday night.
