While speaking in support of the protesters Surinder Choudhary said that JDA is always known for corruption and has been working against the poor community who have been living here since decades, even before the JDA department came into existence.
The protesters were reacting to the JDA's anti-encroachment drive in which several concrete residential houses and shelters were dismantled in Roop Nagar.
The protesters demanded action against the JDA officials while shouting slogans against the alleged selective approach.
They said that the people were targeted even after assurance that the Gujjars and Bakkerwals would be provided support by the government.
