The duo, identified as Neelam (42) – a native of Red Square Market in Haryana’s Hisaar – and Amol (25), an inhabitant of Maharashtra’s Latur, were allegedly protesting in front of Transport Bhavan with the smoke canisters.

According to the police, both have been detained and taken to the police station.
