Police evicts GD Agrawal from venue of hunger strike on 19th day of fast

New Delhi, July 10 (UNI) Police on Tuesday evicted noted environmentalist Swami Gyan Swaroop Sanand (Prof G D Agrawal) from the venue of his indefinite hunger strike in Kankhal-Haridwar on the 19th day of his fast for the cause of clean and uninterrupted flow in Ganga, along its pristine course.
A team of police forcibly removed Swamiji from the site of his 'Fast-unto-Death,' as the Ganga warrior is still firm on resolve of continuing hunger strike, an agitating Prof Agrawal's associate told UNI over phone.
Meanwhile, environmentalists and activists from different places will gather at the Rajghat here on Wednesday, to perform prayers at the Gandhi memorial for the success of Swamiji's fast.
