Gurugram: As many as 100-150 youths have been booked by the Gurugram Police for allegedly disrupting and blocking the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway at Bilaspur Chowk in protest against the Agnipath scheme, even as the Gurugram district administration imposed Section 144 CrPC as a precautionary measure.
Veer Singh, Assistant Commissioner of Police (Pataudi) said around 100-150 youths have been booked at the Bilaspur Police Station for blocking the National Highway and stopping vehicle movement on both sides of the expressway for several hours on Thursday.
“The police had asked the protesters to vacate the expressway but despite instructions, they continued sitting and disrupted the traffic movement, which led to major traffic congestion on the National Highway,” Singh said.
