Next phase of protest against NH toll gate at Surathkal will be hunger strike, says former K'taka minister K Abhayachandra Jain

MANGALURU: Former minister K Abhayachandra Jain said that the next phase of the protest against the national highway tollgate at Surathkal will be a hunger strike.

“We are in the second phase of our protest against the tollgate. I will sit without drinking even a drop of water, for the cause of the people. The MLAs and MP of BJP lack the willpower to close the tollgate. They have been making false promises, and not taking any measures to close the tollgate,” said Jain, who slept at the day-and-night dharna venue, on the first day of the protest.
