DA protest agitators gathered at Nabanna premises, continues dharna

 

A day earlier, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced the decision to give additional four percent DA to state government employees. But even that does not reduce the fury of the movement. The struggling joint platform is raising the bar of the movement by calling the additional four percent dearness allowance announced by Mamata Banerjee as just 'eyewash'. With the permission of the High Court, the DA protestors are sitting on a dharna on the opposite side of Nabanna in the middle of the night.



The DA protest agitators are arguing with the police over the dharna site. Sangamri Joint Mancha complains that the police is preventing the dharna despite the order of the High Court. Due to which the situation became heated. The police kept miking and saying, “There is no permission for a dharna stage here. You are sitting here putting the common man in trouble." Right in front of the police officer who was miking, the protestors asked, "Who says there is no permission?" The court has permission.” The agitators started protesting by beating the lid and banging bowls. Slogans have been going on since morning, the sound of 'Bolo Hari Bol' is being heard. They are also involved in arguments with the police.

On Thursday, the High Court gave conditional permission for the dharna in front of Nabanna on the DA's demand. Justice Rajashekhar Mantha gave conditional permission for the joint struggle stage at Nabanna bus stand. The court said that they can sit on dharna from December 22 to December 24. However, according to the court's condition, more than 300 people cannot stay together on that stage. At the same time, the court said that the location movement must comply with the pollution control rules. The court has also ordered that care should be taken so that there is no impact on the national highway. Besides, the Howrah Police Commissionerate can impose the necessary rules to control law and order. The state is going to the division bench against the judgment of the single bench.

The protestors complained that despite having valid permission, their program is being obstructed on various pretexts. Bhaskar Ghosh, convenor of the Sangamri Joint Manch, said, “The words that are being said have no basis. If something can be done to provoke us before that.” However, the police have not used any coercion so far.

  The 'Citizenship Amendment Act' or 'CAA' may be implemented across the country before the Lok Sabha elections. Such is the claim of a source of the Ministry of Home Affairs. News agency PTI said so. It is to be noted that even after the seal of the President on the CAA at the end of 2019, the rules have not been made. So the law has not yet been implemented. But this time the law will be made soon. And only after that it can be implemented. Such is the demand of central sources. The Citizenship Amendment Act or CAA was enacted in 1955 to prevent illegal immigration. 64 years later the law was amended to change the definition of trespasser. Unlawful trespasser was defined in Section 2 of the 1955 Act. In the 2019 amendment, section 2 was amended to add 2(1)(b).
