Water Cannons On Congress Protesters In Haryana

Описание: On Saturday, two major protests were held demanding Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. While the "Cockroach Janta Party" staged its first protest at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, the Indian Youth Congress led a demonstration in Kurukshetra.

While the Delhi Police smoothly allowed the CJP to protest at the Jantar Mantar and the demonstration concluded without any clash between protesters and the police, in Haryana, the police used water cannons, lathi-charged protesters, and even detained many. A possible reason for the difference in the police's response in the two protests is that while the CJP protested only at the designated protest site at Jantar Mantar, Congress workers in Haryana were aiming to "gherao" the CM's residence.

Led by senior Congress leader and Rohtak MP Deepender Singh Hooda alongside IYC National President Uday Bhanu Chib, the protesters were making their way to the vicinity of Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s residence with banners and slogans, attempting to breach barricades and the heavy security deployed around the premises.

Hooda said, "If the government thinks these water cannons will break our morale, they are mistaken. The youth of this nation will not step back even an inch until Dharmendra Pradhan resigns and accountability is fixed for these repeated failures."

"For money and greed, the nation is being sold. Until Prime Minister Narendra Modi takes action against this compromise, such movements will continue across the country," Uday Bhanu Chib declared.
