The Punjab Police condemned on Wednesday attacks on Delhi police personnel by lawyers in Tis Hazari and Saket courts, and demanded exemplary action against those responsible for the acts.

Thousands of Delhi Police personnel protested outside the force's headquarters for 11 hours on Tuesday against two attacks on Saturday and Monday. The protest was called off after senior officers assured them that their grievances will be addressed.

A resolution by the Punjab Police read, "All IPS and PPS officers of the Punjab Police condemn the brutal attack on officers of Delhi Police in the strongest possible terms. Such assaults on police officers or their humiliation during discharge of their onerous official duties cannot be tolerated."
Punjab DGP Dinkar Gupta later tweeted, "We, the IPS & PPS officers of @PunjabPoliceInd, strongly condemn the brutal attack on @DelhiPolice officers. Nobody is above the law & Constitution. We stand with our brethren in their demand for justice & seek exemplary action against those responsible for such assaults (sic)."
