NEW DELHI (The Thursday Times) — Delhi mein police ne Budh ki shaam darul hukoomat ki bigarti fazai aaloodgi ke khilaf march karne wale darjanon talaba aur naujawanon ko rok diya, aur Turkman Gate se Jantar Mantar ki janib nikalne wale march ke chand sau meter baad sarak par rukawaten khari kar din.
Delhi Police aur Central Reserve Police Force ke ahlkaron ne taqriban 300 se 400 meter baad march karne walon ko do taraf se gher kar rasta band kar diya. Muzahireen ne jahan roka gaya wahin ehtijaj jari rakha. Kisi ko hirasat mein nahin liya gaya.
March ka ehtimam Revolutionary Workers' Party of India (RWPI), Disha Students' Organisation, Naujawan Bharat Sabha, Scientists for Society, aur Stree Mukti League ne kiya tha, jo Diwali ke baad aaloodgi par qaboo pane ke iqdamat par sakhti se amal daramad ka mutalba kar rahi hain.
RWPI ke rukn Vishal ne kaha: “Siyasi rehnuma air purifier lage daftaron aur gharon mein baithe hain, jabke hamila khawateen, buzurg, bachche aur doosre kamzor tabqe is ka bojh utha rahe hain.”
Party daftar par police
Muntazimeen ke mutabiq din ke awail mein police ahlkar shumal mashriqi Delhi ke Karawal Nagar mein RWPI ke daftar pohanche, jahan bachchon ki ek library bhi hai, aur andar maujood arkaan se baghair koi wajah bataye bahar aane ko kaha. Arkaan ka kehna hai ke unhein bataya gaya ke woh bahar nahin ja saken ge, jise unhon ne march rokne ki koshish qarar diya.
Tanzeem ke ek wakeel ne kaha ke police library chalane wale ek rukn ko giraftar karna chahti thi lekin giraftari ki wujoohat par mabni koi qanooni dastavez pesh nahin kar saki. Tanzeem ke mutabiq wukala ki mudakhlat ke baad ahlkar chale gaye. Delhi Police ne yeh tasdeeq karne ki darkhwaston ka jawab nahin diya ke kitne afraad ko roka gaya aur kin qanooni dafaat ke tehat.
Yehi tanzeemen 1 November ko bhi march kar chuki thin, jab police ne unhein Minto Road par roka aur 22 muzahireen ko do thanon mein le gayi, jinhein raat taqriban 2 baje riha kiya gaya. Baad mein police ne un ke khilaf muqadma darj kiya jis mein ahkamaat ki khilaf warzi aur sarkari mulazimeen ke kaam mein rukawat dalne ke ilzamaat shamil hain.
Hawa ab bhi ‘bohat kharab’
Central Pollution Control Board ke mutabiq Budh ki subah Delhi ka Air Quality Index 303 tha, jo “bohat kharab” zumre mein aata hai. Diwali ke baad readings is se kahin zyada thin, jab kai monitoring stations ne data dena band kar diya tha.
Is hafte ke awail mein X ne Diwali ke baad ki smog ki tasaveer post karne par Delhi ke ek photojournalist ka account kuch der ke liye lock kar diya tha.
