KOCHI: The members of the Cochin Corporation Contractors Association were arrested after they held a dharna on the Corporation premises on Thursday.
The officials of the Central police station said that 45 protesters were arrested and removed as the association members were conducting dharna inside the Corporation office compound which is not permitted. The arrested were taken to the Central police station and released on bail. Later, the association members condemned the arrest and said that protest was held after the corporation failed to clear the bills that are pending since March 2010. The association will take out a rally in the city in protest against the arrest and the Corporation's negligence in clearing the pending bills on Friday.
