Jind, April 24
Members of the Haryana Bachao Sangarsh Samiti (HBSS) have the warned the state government against a massive protest in case Safidon was included in Gohana, proposed to be created as a district. At present, Safidon, one of the oldest tehsils, falls under Jind district.
The samiti handed a memorandum to the district administration on Friday demanding creation of Safidon, instead, as a district. It also gave a 15-day ultimatum to the state government for making its stand clear on the issue.
Karambir Saini, state president, Haryana Bachao Sangarsh Samiti said Safidon had better facilities and became a tehsil much earlier than Gohana. Therefore, the state government should add Gohana and Baroda in Safidon tehsil and upgrade it as a district, he added. — OC
