The students of Government Polytechnic boycotted their classes and held massive protest demonstration at Bikram Chowk. They raised slogans against the Congress led central government alleging that it has failed to tackle the menace of corruption effectively.
They also collected money by begging from the people at Bikram Chowk. The passengers, rehri walas, police personals also donated money to these students even beggars on the occasion donated money to these students who were collecting money for the corrupt leaders of the Congress. The NPSU leaders told that the money collected today will be handed over to the Congress MP from Jammu Madan Lal Sharma so that the hunger of the Congress led government could be little bit satisfied.

Partap Singh Jamwal asked the government to drop the idea of a “Sarkari Lokpal”, which he said is envisaged in the bill introduced in the Lok Sabha earlier this month. He said that the government must talk to Anna’s team, political parties and others for a “strong, independent lokpal with a view to bring a maximum number of persons under its purview.”
He also appealed to the Anna team to take J&K also in consideration so that any law made in the parliament should be extended to the state of J&K as there is no law applicable in J&K directly even after it is passed in parliament.
