BJP workers protest near CM’s Sangat Darshan venue

Khamano : Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers protested near the venue of a Sangat Darshan programme here today, alleging that they had not been invited.
Led by Bachan Lal and Kuldeep Madan, they alleged that SAD workers did not allow them to enter the venue as “their names did not figure on the list of invitees”. BJP workers raised slogans and returned. This was not the first such instance. On Monday, BJP leaders in Bassi Pathana protested after they were “not allowed” to enter the venue for a Sangat Darshan programme. Earlier today, before the start of the Sangat Darshan, about 25 anganwari workers tried to disrupt traffic on the Ludhiana-Chandigarh road. This happened when the cavalcade of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal was to cross the road. The police, however, persuaded the workers to send a four-member team to Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal for talks. Led by anganwari workers’ union leader Satwant Kaur Kalewal, workers met the CM who called them for talks in Chandigarh tomorrow.
