| People vow to intensify stir against toll despite release of detained Yuva Rajput Sabha members | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 27: Even as authorities in the wee hours of Sunday released 26 members of the Yuva Rajput Sabha detained by the police a week ago, agitation against collecting toll tax from Sarore Toll Plaza continues.
Although the released Yuva Rajput Sabha members have refused to disclose the future course of action, various social organizations have announced to take the agitation to its logical conclusion.
Hundreds of people who were gathered at the main chowk of Samba town on Sunday vowed to continue their agitation till the suspension of the collection of toll tax from Sarore Toll Plaza.
While agitating people welcomed the decision of the government to release detained activists of Yuva Rajput Sabha, they made it clear that their stir was not for their release.
“Our agitation is against the illegal toll plaza at Sarore”, one of the agitators said and asserted that they are getting overwhelming support from cross sections of the society.
Earlier on Sunday morning, authorities released 26 workers of Yuva Rajput Sabha who were detained on August 21 after a massive protest at Sarore Toll Plaza.
The government released detained Yuva Rajput Sabha members after most parts of the Jammu division observed a shutdown with protesters demanding their unconditional release.
After the release of 26 YRS activists on Sunday, officials said all the detained members of the organisation were released from Kathua jail in the early hours of the day.
Meanwhile released Yuva Rajput Sabha members did not disclose the future course of action of their agitation against Sarore Toll Plaza.
Instead of announcing the next move of agitation, they only thanked the people for their support and for coming on the roads for our release. |
