At least two persons were injured after the CISF allegedly resorted to a lathi charge to disperse a group of people who were demonstrating to press for their demands in Jharkhand’s Bokaro district on Thursday, police said.<\/p>\n
The group of people, under the banner of BSL Visthapit Apprentice Sangh, were holding a demonstration near the administrative building of Bokaro Steel Plant in support of their demands, including employment, a police officer said.<\/p>\n
The Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), Bokaro City, Alok Ranjan, said during the agitation, the demonstrators were obstructing employees, who were heading to the plant.<\/p>\n
The CISF personnel deployed there urged them to allow the employees to enter the steel plant.<\/p>\n
“When the agitators did not comply, the CISF personnel resorted to a mild lathi charge to disperse them. Two demonstrators were injured in the incident,” he said.<\/p>\n
The injured are being treated at the Bokaro General Hospital, the DSP said. Bokaro MLA Sweta Singh claimed that one person died in the incident.<\/p>\n
The police, however, did not confirm this.<\/p>\n
