The Asansol Durgapur Police Commissionerate (ADPC) had beefed up security in the office and cordoned the area with iron barricades.
Huge RAF and combat forces were deployed in the area.
The barricades at the Sen Raleigh Road, near Bhagat Singh Mor, were broken by the protestors as they marched forward raising slogans. But this time, near the HLG Hospital Mor, a huge police force and even stronger iron barricades prevented them from marching ahead further.
The protestors then sat on the road in Asansol and chanted slogans and obstructed the road.
“The police are not allowing our peaceful protest and that is why we are staging a dharna on the road here today,” said Bappa Chatterjee.
