Agnipath protests: Agitators vandalise Punjab’s Ludhiana railway station

Agitators protesting against the Centre’s new Agnipath recruitment scheme for armed forces on Saturday vandalised Punjab’s Ludhiana railway station.

The police said that CCTV footage is available and they are identifying the miscreants who attacked the railway station.

“Police immediately took action. Around 8-10 persons have been rounded up. Some people have called them and misused them. We have videos available and are identifying them,” said RS Brar, Joint Commissioner of Police (CP) of Ludhiana.

Meanwhile, after the protests raged on in some parts of the country, the government has stepped up their efforts to appeal to the protestors not to protest and understand the new recruitment programme of the military.
