They met the CM and presented their demands to him. The CM assured them to file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in the Supreme Court in the coming week. "The CM seemed ignorant about the matter.

"Since February, we had written to the CM several times regarding the matter and now he is saying he doesn't know anything about the issue," Rohera said.
