लोयाबाद की साइडिंग से चंडीगढ़ पॉवर प्लांट के लिए पहले रैक की हुई लोडिंग

On Wednesday, the first coal rake for the Chandigarh Power Plant was loaded at the new railway siding in Loyabad. The event was attended by a large number of supporters of BJP MP Dhulu Mahato, who had come from various areas including Kendua, Karkend, Jogta, and Loyabad. There were concerns about...

potential clashes between supporters and opponents, with both sides reportedly preparing weapons. The siding has been a target of bomb blasts and firing incidents in the past, leading to the deployment of local police, CISF, and GRP teams, though no major incidents have been reported. Before the loading commenced, a puja ceremony was held with supporters chanting “Har Har Mahadev” and breaking coconuts. Supporters were enthusiastic about the loading process. Sources suggest that the opposing faction intends to prevent future rakes from being loaded. Anita Devi, president of the Grameen Sangarsh Morcha, claimed that the loading began peacefully after the puja, with no conflict. Bittu Rai, coordinator of the Morcha, stated that their fight was also aimed at combating unemployment. The event was attended by several women, including Anita Devi, Poonam Prasad, Gayatri Devi, Gudiya Devi, Munni Devi, Sahani Khatoon, Geeta Devi, Rekha Devi, Gujri Devi, Manju Devi, and Podina Khatoon. The Loyabad Station House Officer, Satyajit Kumar, emphasized that the police's responsibility was to maintain law and order, not facilitate coal loading. He warned that anyone attempting to disrupt the process would face consequences.

Sources ke mutabik, opponents ke group ka kehna hai ki yeh rake to load ho gaya, lekin aage koi rake load hone nahi diya jaayega. Grameen Sangarsh Morcha ki president Anita Devi ne kaha ki puja ke baad loading shantipurna shuru hua, koi conflict nahi hai. Morcha ke coordinator Bittu Rai ne kaha ki unki ladhai unemployment dur karne ko lekar bhi thi. Event mein Anita Devi, Poonam Prasad, Gayatri Devi, Gudiya Devi, Munni Devi, Sahani Khatoon, Geeta Devi, Rekha Devi, Gujri Devi, Manju Devi, aur Podina Khatoon jaisi kai mahilaen maujood thi. Loyabad Station House Officer, Satyajit Kumar, ne zordaar kiya ki police ka kaam law and order maintain karna hai, coal loading karwana nahi. Unhone dhamki di ki koi bhi is process ko disrupt karne ki koshish karega, usko bakhsa nahi jaayega.
