Punjab Police conducted a lathi charge on unemployed youth from the 2600 Apprenticeship Union protesting outside the PSPCL headquarters in Patiala. The protesters, who had been demonstrating since June 1 for regularizing services and canceling written exams for assistant lineman posts, blocked all office gates. Shiromani Akali Dal President Sukhbir Singh Badal condemned the police action, criticizing Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for failing to fulfill employment promises and using force against peaceful protesters. https://www.ptcnews.tv/news-in-punjabi/patiala-police-lathicharge-unemployed-youth-sitting-outside-pspcl-office-4425327 #Creator program
