About 500 people demonstrated and then handed over a representation to the Vice-Chairman of GDA demanding an underpass between Site-4 industrial area and Ramprastha colony instead of the bridge.

The demand was to address the problems of heavy traffic and danger because of a train track nearby that has led to the death of five school-going children in the past.

President of the Bahujan Samaj Suraksha Sangh, one of the organisers, Kamal Jatav threatened to stop the train route near the village if the decision was not taken back.
