A huge clash occurred among police and the picketers on the spot, although police successfully to entered the District Magistrate and another 1st Class Magistrate S Chowdhury inside the court amidst high security. But only 2 judges entered the court whereas other officials were not allowed to enter there. Thus the Court service has been paralyzed.
