The situation still remains sensitive after the recent demonstrations in the Hangasa region to protest against the arrest of Aam Aadmi Party MLA Mehraj Malik under the Public Safety Act (PSA). The administration has upheld the restrictive orders leveled under Section 163 of BNSS as a precautionary measure.
After the demonstrations, the administration had relaxed two hours yesterday (September 11) yesterday, due to which the common people got an opportunity to buy essential items. But, today (12 September), once again all markets and commercial establishments of the region remained completely closed. Due to this, the local people are facing problems for everyday needs.
