Chandigarh: Congress chain hunger strike enters Day 5, MP Manish Tewari to join today

The chain hunger strike of the Congress against the privatisation of power services entered the fifth day on Sunday. Congress’s city unit president HS Lucky said that on Monday, people of the villages will sit on the hunger strike and Chandigarh MP Manish Tewari will also be present.

Every day, five activists of the Congress party sit on hunger strike.

The UT administration had announced that the privatisation process of the power department will be completed by the end of 2020. However, the UT Powermen Union challenged the move in court on December 1, 2020, stalling the process. The high court dismissed the petition last month, paving the way for privatisation.
