Darkness in Akbarnagar
People pelted stones at the LDA and the police team from both the first and second settlements of Akbarnagar. To save the teams stuck in the middle, electricity was cut immediately. As soon as the electricity was cut and there was complete darkness in Akbarnagar, the force was able to control the stone pelters. The electricity remained shut off for two and a half hours till around 7:45 pm. The police then stopped the movement of people coming to the road from the houses of Akbarnagar by barricading.
Three business establishments demolished, women protest
The LDA team demolished three commercial establishments on court orders on Sunday morning. Of these, two were in a narrow street and one on the main road. The uproar took place during the demolition of a commercial establishment in a narrow street. However, there was tension in the settlements on both sides of Akbarnagar since Sunday morning. Actually, Imran Raja’s family was given an ultimatum to vacate the house. Angered by this ultimatum, 200 women camped in front of Imran’s house and registered their protest. Imran is lobbying in the court to save the houses and shops of the colony. When the teams reached Imran’s house again, they returned after seeing the women.
