gurgaon:
The Gurgaon government has banned large gatherings amid grueling protests by military aspirants against the new recruiting policy, Agnipath.
Apart from Palwal, where violence was used yesterday and where mobile internet and SMS were cut for 24 hours, Faridabad’s Ballabhgarh is also facing a 24-hour power outage.
Services that have been broken include mobile internet, SMS including bulk messages but excluding banking and mobile recharge, and mobile network dongles.
Authorities said the move would help maintain public order and prevent people from spreading rumours.
