Solan, September 17: Solan police have registered a case against the Vyapar Mandal president and several Hindu Samaj leaders after a protest in Solan went beyond the approved parameters. Initially, the protest was aimed at following a fixed route and remaining peaceful, but it went off track after the participants raised objectionable slogans targeting a particular community and the rally was extended beyond the approved time.
According to the police report, the rally was to start from Children’s Park and pass through Upper Bazaar and end at Purana Bus Stand. However, during the protest led by the Vyapar Mandal president and other Hindu Samaj representatives, the protesters deviated from the approved route and marched towards Kotlanala and Thodo Ground. Despite police efforts to persuade the protesters to stick to the approved route and time, the rally continued beyond the authorized time limit of noon.
Further adding to the chaos, tension escalated on Mall Road when protesters manhandled a man. The situation worsened when some participants put cross marks on several shops near the old bus stand and damaged hoardings outside various establishments. A video capturing these actions, including slogans targeting a particular community, has since gone viral on social media, sparking concern and outrage.
The Solan police have confirmed that a case has been registered at police station Sadar Solan. The charges against the protest organisers include deviating from the approved route, not following the permitted schedule of the rally, and inciting unrest by raising objectionable slogans.
SP Gaurav Singh said, “We took action after the protesters violated the agreed route and timing and engaged in activities disrupting public order. Legal proceedings are underway to ensure accountability for these violations.”
