Police use water cannon to disperse Punjab Congress workers

Police, in Chandigarh, on June 16, used water cannon to disperse a group of Congress leaders and workers as they tried to take out a protest march to the Raj Bhavan to denounce the "undemocratic ways" in which the party's leaders are being "targeted" by the Centre.

The Congress' Punjab unit led by its chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring gathered at the party's State headquarters in Sector 15, from where they tried to march on foot towards the Punjab Raj Bhavan, about 4-5KM away, to lay siege but were soon stopped by the police.
