Trying to explain SP Balram Meena
SP Balram Meena later gathered all the workers in one place and persuaded them not to take the law into their own hands. The Gujarat government is sending everyone via tram. Be patient and strict action will be taken against anyone who sabotages or engages in illegal activity.
