Workers of different organisations affiliated to Revolutionary Marxist Party of India (RMPI) lodged their protest against the alleged police atrocities on political opponents of the ruling Congress here on Tuesday.
The protesters after passing through city roads and bazaars gheroed the city police station.
Daljit Singh Dialpura, Jaspal Singh Chabal and Jasbir Kaur while addressing the protesters alleged that the police had registered criminal cases against sarpanch and other members of Tur village panchayat. The leaders said the cases were registered because panchayat leaders were not following the diktats of ruling party leaders. They said as the matter was under reinvestigation but the police were conducting raids at the residences of panchayat members to arrest them.
The protesters said that if justice was not given they would intensify their agitation.
On the assurance of DSP Sucha Singh Bal the protesters lifted the gherao of the police station.
