Police on Sunday charged the protesting government teachers with batons after their attempt to enter into Red Zone near Karachi Press Club. The teachers appointed on contract, stage a protest demonstration outside the KPC demanding that their job be made permanent. Police resorted to baton charge to disperse the protestors when they started walking towards the 'Red Zone' after expressing outrage against the Sindh government. In result of baton charge, a teacher injured and taken to the hospital.
However, the teachers rejected to clear the road and started chanting slogans against the provincial government. The rally was stopped at Scout Office near Arts Council as the police blocked road linking to the Sindh Assembly building. A team of negotiators from the provincial administration has also arrived in to hold talks with protesting teachers. Police forces also called water cannon to deal with the protestors continuing their demonstration at the mainstream road adjacent to the KPC.
