TIL Desk/National/Rohtak/ The district administration has imposed Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in parts of Rohtak district as a precautionary measure in view of the call given by a section of Jats for a fresh round of quota agitation from January 29. The assembly of five or more people in about 500 metres from national and state highways, along with railway stations in the city has been banned.
The Haryana government has sought 55 companies of paramilitary forces from the Centre besides deployment of 7,000 Home Guards in the state which saw 30 deaths and widespread vandalism during a similar stir last year.
Rohtak and some of its neighbouring districts, including Sonipat and Jhajjar, had been worst-hit by the violence. The agitation had also affected Delhi as the protesters cut water supply to the national capital. The call for fresh stir has been given by some Jat outfits, especially those owing allegiance to the All India Jat Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti, headed by Yashpal Malik.
