Following a tussle between farmers and authorities during an agitation on the steps of the District Administrative Complex in Kalaburagi on Wednesday against what was said to be injustice meted out by Orient Cement, Deputy Commissioner Yeshwant Gurukar has issued an order prohibiting protests and demonstrations on the premises of the complex.
In an official memo, the Deputy Commissioner has said that dharna satyagraha and strikes held on the steps of the Mini Vidhana Soudha, the District Administrative Complex that houses the Deputy Commissioner’s office as well, are disturbing official work and also law and order problem.
Mr. Gurukar has, however, designated a space near the left gate of the complex adjacent to the Kalaburagi Urban Development Authority for submitting memorandums to the district administration.
