Punjab Police fire water cannons at protesting government staff demanding DA
On Friday, the Punjab Police utilized water cannons to scatter state employees who were heading toward the Assembly in Chandigarh to demonstrate against the AAP administration. Thousands of staff members from more than 50 different departments gathered to call for the payment of 18% in outstanding Dearness Allowance (DA) arrears. The demonstration caused traffic disruptions on major routes leading to the Assembly as unions pushed for the government to settle these long-overdue payments.
