Unemployed forestry graduates climb mobile tower in Kashmir

Srinagar, May 15 (UNI) In a novel way to draw the attention of the government, three members of the All Jammu and Kashmir Unemployed Forestry Graduates Association (AJKUFGA) today climbed a mobile tower in the city.

According to reports a group of AJKUFGA took to streets at Abi-Guzar near here demanding jobs.

Raising anti-government slogans, when they tried to move towards the main road, police swung into action and arrested half a dozen agitators.

However, three of them managed to escape and later climbed on Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) tower at Abi-Guzar.

Later they were brought down and taken into custody.

The agitators alleged that despite repeated assurance by the government to adjust them, they are without jobs for years.
