Govt. should listen to reasonable public issues than using tear gas. Without any plight, public never come to the streets. Feel very sorry for the Police officer who died.

Oh! man, who has regard for the law? Rulers? For them the law is a joke. No surprise the ordinary man tries to take law into his hands.

I think the police should find the person who planted the tree. This is justice in Banana Republics.
