Party activists stage protest at the Collectorate
A tense situation prevailed at the Collectorate for sometime on Monday as police personnel tried to prevent BJP activists, who tried to barge into the Collectorate building, demanding withdrawal of the orders issued by the State government against holding of Vinayaka Chaviti festival at public places. A large number of the party leaders and activists and representatives of other organisations like the Sadhu Parishad took out a rally from the Gandhi statue, near the GVMC, to the Collectorate and made their way into the Collectorate premises. The party leaders and workers entered into arguments with the police personnel and raised slogans against their high-handed behaviour as they were stopped from entering into the building.More Related News
