Hyderabad: Hundreds of Home Guards on Thursday held a dharna at Indira Park here and later marched towards the Secretariat demanding regularisation of their jobs and fulfilment of other demands.

The Home Guards have been demanding that their jobs be regularised, salaries be increased and they be paid on a par with police constables.

Some of the protesting Home Guards claimed that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao had assured of regularising their job and requested him to look into the matter.

Earlier, a delegation of Home Guards met Chief Secretary Rajiv Sharma. After the dharna, they marched towards the Secretariat.

However, police foiled their attempt to lay siege to the Secretariat, prompting the protesters to hold a sit-in in front of the Secretariat.
