Hardik warns to protest at Rajkot stadium, heavy security in place

Rajkot, Oct 18 (IBNS): After Gujarat, Hardik Patel, the 22-year-old leader of Gujarat's Patel community, has now threatened to stage a protest at Rajkot stadium, which is the venue of the third one-day international or ODI match between India and South Africa in the district on Sunday.
Following his threat, mobile internet services have been banned in Rajkot since Saturday night.
 
Tight security arrangements have also been taken by the administration.
 
In fact, the Rajkot district administration has almost transformed the city into a fortress to keep the protesters at bay with heavy security cover on the Jamnagar highway approaching Khandheri -eight kilometres from the city - where the Saurashtra SCA Stadium is situated, said reports.
 
Meanwhile, section 144 is already in force in Rajkot district. 
 
Patel Navnirman Sena (PNS) and Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS) convener Hardik continued to issue threats, alleging that the BJP government has blocked tickets to keep away Patidars.
