The Baghpat administration on Wednesday night got a protest site vacated in the district after receiving a request from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) which said that it had to complete pending construction work.

Baghpat Additional District Magistrate Amit Kumar Singh said, "NHAI had written to us because their work was getting obstructed due to the protests. We had come here to get the site vacated. The protesters including a few elderly people left the site peacefully."
