Palamu administration is in a quandary following the Statewide stir of the Para Teachers, who are showing black flags and raising anti Government slogans with a fierce regularity these days here in the State and in Palamu too where they had waved black flags before MP and MLAs.
Sources said local administration here too is too concerned about their ‘behaviour’ during the programme of the Prime Minister here.
Commenting upon this DIG police Palamu Vipul Shukla said on Sunday, “The PM is coming over here for a very noble and ambitious project, which on completion and will benefit millions of farmers of the two states Jharkhand and Bihar and at such occasion like this which is most pious, farmers’ friendly and important, no aberration from Para Teachers is expected.”
He further said, “Administration looks forward to the exhibition and display of good sense from Para Teachers as this will not be the time and occasion for them by any stretch of imagination to raise their banner of resentment or agony as the State government is already moving fast to overcome this issue.”
Sources said there is a serious apprehension of para teachers doing anything ‘unpleasant’ on this occasion which the administration is all set to foil. DC Palamu Shantanu K Agrahari said the administration is fully prepared to avert any nuisance.
Agrahari at his Saturday press briefing where he spoke less but meant more had said, “There would be frisking of all the visitors coming over to this programme as I too face frisking whenever I go to attend programmes in one particular place in Delhi.” What he meant was that security check would be too high.
Sources said the whole of the Chiyanki is under the radar of the police here. There are people here who used to learn driving four wheelers and even two wheeler here in this Chiyanki area but now they have been asked to keep off the areas till this programme is over.
Chiyanki area boasts of a railway station also of the same name Chiyanki railway station where hordes of people come here every day and here too police are keeping a close watch on any arrival of people with any dubious look or having any suspicious movement.
Sources said houses in and around Chiyanki area have been surveyed with their height, structures like rooms, balcony, gallery, windows etc and vulnerability if any as here on the roof tops there would be cops when PM would be here.
Sources said a few kilometers away from the venue where Modi is to address the people here are a few stone crushing plants which too are being scanned by the police with inputs like number of labourers working there, their residential backgrounds etc.
Sources said there are trees also which too are under the lens of the police. Police headquarter in Ranchi is to send in here heavy contingent of police force, which will have more lathi cops as it is more effective in crowd management.
Senior police officials are in touch with their counterparts in Bihar’s Rohtas, Aurangabad and Gaya as it is expected there may be an influx of people from these places too on this occasion as dam’s water when released would be reaching there in times to come.
Garhwa and Chatra districts’ police too have been taken into confidence for this VVIP programme here as sources said Palamu has its borders with both Garhwa and Chatra, which still have naxals lurking there.
DC Palamu Shantanu Kumar Agrahari said, “There would be a meticulous preparation for the PM’s programme here.”
