Police deployed tight security at railway stations, bus stands and at Central government offices in wake of a Bharat bandh call given by some organisations on June 20 in protest against the Agnipath scheme announced by the Centre recently.
“No permission has been given for staging of protests. Students and youth are urged not to participate in any bandh call or protests. Stern action would be taken against protesters and those attempting to disrupt law and order,” a senior police officer warned.
Additional forces of Rapid Action Force (RAF), Octopus, APSP, QRT and other wings were deployed. Besides, the Railway Protection Force (RPF), Government Railway Police (GRP) and the local police were positioned at all vulnerable places.
