BSNL Employees union Punjab circle strongly condemned the brutal police lathicharge on protesting ETT, TET teachers of Punjab at Mohali yesterday in which several leaders of union and workers were injured seriously some of them become unconscious, even the parents of protesting lady teachers were not spared. In a joint press statement issued by Com. Balbir Singh Circle Secretary & Balwinder Singh District Secretary Ludhiana unit, demanded registration of cases against the erring police personals, who brutally lathicharged the protesting teachers. In this lathicharge even the leaders of other unions/Associations were not spared. The police arrested the state president of Aganwadi workers union Usha Rani along with ETT, TET Teacher and Bhartaya Kisan union leaders. It is pertinent to not here that Punjab Govt. Lead by Shri Parkash Singh Badal , is curbing the Constitutional right to protest in Punjab and trying to shut the voice of thousands of teachers, Pharmacists, Aganwadi workers, factory workers, farmers etc. The news of police atrocities are appearing in a daily routine. Inspite of providing jobs the Govt. has given the police a free hand to frighten the agitating masses. BSNL Employees Union Punjab circle will fully support the agitating ETT,TET teachers and other organisation who are fighting for their demands in Punjab.
