Bantala: A number of labourers were reportedly stopped, questioned and beaten up in the Mahidharpur police outpost area under Banarpal police limits in Angul district.
The migrant workers were on their way home amid lockdown. The cops made the workers kneel down on the road.

“I got information about the incident in the evening. Action will be taken against the policeman as per SP’s instruction,” he added.
