Residents Lockdown Barrackpore

Residents of Barrackpore and environs say they have reached their breaking point with the government, and staged at least five fiery roadblocks on Monday morning.

No one could get in or out of the area from as early as 5:15am.

Reporter Cindy Raghubar-Teekersingh was on location this morning when residents called on the authorities to hear their plights, or see a repeat of their actions.
