20 July 2009
Earlier this morning, the joint forces resorted to lathicharge to disperse the agitating students and their guardians gathered in front of the base camp at Gohamidanga High School in Lalgarh. They were demanding that the school be vacated by the joint forces who have been camping there since 17 June. According to police, the students allegedly backed by thousands of PSBPC activists, equipped with their traditional weapons tried to break into the building and attacked the policemen. The agitators alleged that police resorted to lathicharge on the students without paying heed to their demands. Several students and PSBPC activists were injured and the condition of three people ~ Ahladi Hembram, Mrs Parbati Hansda and Mrs Dulali Murmu were said to be critical in Lalgarh Block Primary Hospital.

Athlete Anup Mandal of Goaltore near Lalgarh was so severely beaten by police and paramilitary forces that his athletic carrier is at stake. Bone of his left hand is broken; he has been under treatment with severe injuries in his back and waist. On 19 June 2009 when he was returning from one of his friend's home at Pingboni, the operation of combined forces was underway. The forces not only torchered him but also broke his bicycle.
