AAP Protests Alleged Hasty Passage of Municipal Agendas in Chandigarh
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Chandigarh protested against the alleged hurried passage of municipal corporation agendas worth over Rs 227-300 crore without proper discussion or transparency. Led by state president Vijaypal Singh, protesters marched from the municipal office to the governor's house but were stopped by police using barricades and water cannons. AAP demanded an independent inquiry and cancellation of the agendas, alleging violations of procedural rules by the BJP. The party warned of intensified agitation if concerns are not addressed.
