Dehradun police registered a case under section 309 of IPC against four contractual employees of Uttarakhand Power Corporation limited (UPCl), Uttarakhand Jal Vidyut Nigam limited (UJVNl) and Power Transmission Corporation of Uttarakhand limited (PTCUl) who had climbed atop a mobile phone tower near Vidhan Sabha in support of their pending demands.
Nehru Colony police station in charge DM Baluni said that the accused have been identified as Ranveer Pundir, K Joshi, Darshan and K Pandey.
It may be mentioned here that with the assurance of district officers that they would organise a meeting with Chief Minister for redressal of their pending demands, these protesters had climbed down from the tower on Monday evening.
The agitators were protesting near Vidhan Sabha under the banner of Uttarakhand Vidyut Samvida Karmchari Sangathan (UVSKS) in support of demands including 15 per cent hike in salary, enforcement of labour laws and provision of 10 lakh compensation for the bereaved family in case of accidental death of a worker and a job for one dependent, official quarters and other demands.
