People protest against toll plaza in Raipur

Raipur People in Chhattisgarh stepped up their protest against a leading road construction company for trying to illegally setting up a toll plaza. Dozens of residents blocked a key national highway since early hours for the second day, seeking arrest of DS Constructions’ officials for beginning work for the toll plaza without permission of the state government or the Raipur Municipal Corporation. ‘We are protesting against the monopoly of DS Constructions for over a month in phases for its bid to set up the toll plaza in a residential area, Sundar Nagar,’ said Santosh Tiwari of the Nagrik Sangharsh Samiti.
