Incidents of arson, vandalism and stone-pelting were reported, with vehicles, including police SUVs, set on fire. Incidents of vandalism were also reported from Sectors 63, 65 and 57, while several factories in Sectors 58, 59, 60 and 64 remained shut amid the unrest.
The unrest paralysed traffic during the morning rush hour, leaving thousands of commuters stranded enroute to Delhi, with long queues of vehicles stretching for several kilometres at the Delhi-Noida border.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed the formation of a committee to address workers’ concerns and prevent further industrial unrest.
Seven cases have been registered at multiple police stations under the Gautam Buddh Nagar Commissionerate, and several anti-social elements have been taken into custody following the unrest, police said.
