PUDUCHERRY: Ahead of the dharna agitation planned by Congress and allies under the leadership of Chief Minister V Narayanasamy from January 8 onwards demanding recall of Lt Governor Kiran Bedi, the District Administration has imposed several restrictions and has called in the Central Armed Paramilitary Forces (CAPF) for assisting the police in maintenance of law and order.
Three companies of CAPF have arrived in Puducherry, DGP Balaji Srivastava said.
The DGP said that while the right to protest is a fundamental right and that it can be exercised subject to public order.
But the protest has to be within the framework of the law and the restrictions of the District Administration, adhering to health regulations and maintenance of law and order.
