This is failure of Punjab Police. Whenever there is a gathering of people they have to get permission from the local police.

In salem to organise a street corner meeting, we have to get permission from police. Police have designated places for public gatherings
Salem police refused to give us permission to hold a street corner meeting because service road was near the meeting spot , such being the case how did #Amritsar police give permission for such a huge gathering on the railway track ?. 100% Punjab Police failure.
Punjab Police shouldn't have permitted this event so close to railway track
People have no business to stand on the railway track .
Organisers should be arrested
Police officials concerned should be arrested
