Nearly 300 people of Brichgunj and nearby area participated in the said meeting in which it was decided that a letter in this regard will be sent to the Prime Minister, Lt. Governor and Chief Secretary and if even after that no action is initiated in favour of Brichgunj people, then people of the area will resort to massive protest once again.
After two major road accidents, involving quarry trucks in Brichgunj area, the residents had protested against movement of quarry trucks in the area and blocked quarry trucks on Thursday. Later the resident did not get any support from the Administration hence the protest ended abruptly.
Residents of Brichgunj are demanding that the operation of quarry trucks must be completely prohibited in Brichgunj road and all such operations must be carried out from any alternative road, from Brookshabad area.
