Hike In Fares:Protesters, Police Clash Continues In Rawalpindi

The protest held at Bhara Kahu, Rawalpindi the other day, against rise in public transport fares continues today engulfing Faizabad area too.

The demonstrators took to roads early morning and blocked Murree Road.
Police resorted to baton charge, teargas shelling and aerial firing to disperse the angry protesters and managed to reopen the blocked road.

The protesters pelted stones at the police making the latter to recede; the situation, however, turns vice versa at times.
