Karni Sena protest ends after 30 hours:Protesters clear four-lane in Ratlam; Jeevan Singh says Collector was too busy

The protest by the Karni Sena Parivar on the Mhow–Neemuch four-lane highway ended after about 30 hours. The sit-in was called off after Jeevansingh Sherpur said the administration had assured action on their 11 demands, and steps were taken to search for the missing 14-year-old boy. After this announcement, the protesters left the road, and traffic returned to normal. Let us tell you, the protest started on Tuesday and continued till Wednesday evening. Meanwhile, on Tuesday night, Karni Sainiks set up a tent on the Mhow-Neemuch four-lane, cooked food, and slept on beds laid out on the road. Karni Sena Parivar chief Jeevansingh Sherpur said, “We are not creating any disturbance. Let Collector Madam come listen to us. Until our demands are heard, we will remain seated on this road.” Jeevan Singh said – Collector Madam is too busy
When the Collector did not meet them, Jeevan Singh said we wanted to present our constitutional point. But Collector Madam must be too busy. On the question of not meeting, he said that it is her personal matter. An officer’s orders prevail. She did not accept that we are citizens of this state and this country. We are people of her district. If she had come, we would have presented the problem better. We would have also complained about some officers. She ended democracy. She prevented us from meeting. That’s why we had to stage this protest here. Assurance given for the resolution of demands
Jeevan Singh said that a 14-year-old minor girl had been missing for two months. The family members were exhausted from repeatedly visiting the police. Our main demand in the protest was to find the girl. As soon as we started the protest, the girl was found. Will we have to stage a protest every time a girl goes missing? An assurance has been received for the resolution of demands. We are ending the protest. Meanwhile, Additional Collector Dr. Shalini Srivastava stated that a protest was being held regarding 11 points and they were informed about the action taken on them. Yesterday too, we informed them about all the actions taken. But they were not satisfied. Action will be taken on the points as per rules. Karni Sena members wanted to meet the Collector for their 11-point demands
Actually, Karni Sena members, led by Jeevansingh Sherpur, were going to gherao the Collectorate on Tuesday to resolve their 11-point demands. They were stopped by the police on the Dosi village four-lane outside Ratlam city. Police force was deployed at all entry points of the city. Protesters were prevented from going to the Collectorate. Karni Sena members insisted on meeting Collector Misha Singh. When the Collector did not arrive, everyone sat down on the road. The road remained closed throughout the day. Throughout the day, there were several discussions between officials and Jeevansingh Sherpur. But everyone wanted to meet only the Collector. See pictures The protesting people had brought blankets, sheets, etc., with them. Remained steadfast all night Karni Sena members also became adamant, stating that until Collector Madam meets them and listens to their demands, they will not leave. They set up tents on the road at night. Carpets were laid and mattresses were placed on the road. Jeevansingh and other supporters all slept on the road. Before this, food was also cooked on the road. Everyone sat on the road and ate. Earlier in the afternoon, Jeevansingh Sherpur also accused the officials of spreading anarchy. Collector and SP’s meeting with officials Until one o’clock at night, Collector Misha Singh, SP Amit Kumar and other officers were present at the Circuit House. Here, some office bearers of Karni Sena were discussing with the officers. We are not creating a disturbance Around 2:30 AM at the protest site, Jeevansingh Sherpur, while discussing with Dainik Bhaskar Digital, said that we waited for Collector Madam all day. We thought that Collector Madam would come and listen to us. But that did not happen. Citing Section 144, they stopped us from going to the public hearing. We followed the legal process. He said, respecting the words of the Collector and SP, we did not proceed further. They took that as our weakness and did not pay attention to us. They kept us sitting all day. Hindu and Muslim women had also come with us. They had a problem with land deed distribution. The Muslim women were also fasting. They remained hungry and thirsty. Jeevan says that, we have already stated that if our demands are not resolved, then grant permission for a protest inside or outside the Collector’s premises. We are not creating any kind of disturbance. We are asking them for permission for Satyagraha, which is our fundamental right. The dispute started from here On March 10, two dumpers engaged in the construction of Jhalwa-Kalaliya road in Jaora block were seized by the mining department on charges of illegal transportation. Both these dumpers belong to contractor Ayush Sharma, who is said to be a supporter of Jeevansingh Sherpur. In protest of the seizure, Sherpur, along with supporters, staged an all-night protest at Ringnod police station by setting up bedding. Sherpur alleged that the Mining Department took action by seizing empty dumpers in the name of illegal mining, after which they announced a siege of the Collectorate. Demand for Resolution of 11 Demands Through the protest, 11 crucial issues related to public interest in the district were to be presented before the administration. These include a demand to halt action against innocents in the name of illegal mining and to stop prostitution in Pipliya Jodha. Additionally, demands for swift justice in the kidnapping of a girl missing for two months in Amner, action on incidents of theft, and the removal of illegal brick kilns in Borwani have also been made. Extending the loan repayment date for farmers, resolving problems in wheat procurement, and demanding basic facilities in Jaora’s Avika City are also prominent. See late night pictures from Tuesday
