The protesting teachers demanded to meet Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi.
Earlier in November, Channi faced similar protests by a group of unemployed teachers ahead of his address at a public gathering in Barnala district. The protestors were similarly detained and they had raised slogans against the state’s Congress government near the Dana Mandi venue, demanding jobs. PTI reported that policemen in civil dress stopped them by covering their mouths with their hands.
In the melee, the turban of some of the protesters came off. One of the protesters, Jagjit Singh, accused the state government of not paying heed to their long-pending demand of giving them jobs. The protesters said they have been demanding from the government to give them employment in the Education Department.
Congress launches ‘Ladki Hoon Lad Sakti Hoon’ song
On the other hand, the grand old party which has been strongly pitching women empowerment as its poll promise in Uttar Pradesh launched its campaign song on Wednesday. It is based on the Hindu hymn – ‘Mahishasurmardini stotra’. The 2-minute video shows women working fearlessly in all fields of life- Army, dance, music, engineering, law, medicine, etc. Sharing glimpses of Priyanka Vadra’s face-off with UP police while visiting Hathras gang-rape victim’s kin, Congress declares ‘I am not weak, I am Durga, I am strong, I am a girl, I can fight’. The 403-seat UP assembly where Yogi rules with an iron-clad majority of 314 seats, is up for battle in February 2022.
