To mark their protest, municipal workers carried out a rally to the police station and gave application demanding action against SDM.
After this, the workers sat on a dharna outside the municipal office and locked the main gate. Gupta said that the strike will continue until action against SDM. If the demand will go unheard then essential services like cleanliness, drinking water supply, street lights will also be halted. Earlier, workers had also given a memorandum to school education minister Inder Singh Parmar demanding appropriate action. At present, no senior officer has come to intervene in the matter.
