Only for tomorrow? What about next tomorrow or next week...So suspend operations June 1, Then get killed June 2 when operations resume? Don't gerrit

There should no be atom of biasness in this barn. Sp of police should not hustle with bike too in the evening ooo And those police men should not work under camouflage

I enter Okada mostly, if govt decide to ban the movement, I don't have any problem with that. Govt know the reason, they should go ahead, I fully support the govt. Anyone who is not please with that can go to somewhere else, even their state of origin. Why protest, na by force?

Everywhere good ☹️☹️
