Jaipur Metro today sacked 25 contractual workers over their "unnotified protest" during which they allegedly tried to stop the sale of tickets at Chandpole metro station.

An FIR was registered against the protesting workers on a complaint by the JMRC.

"An FIR was filed with Metro Police Station against 25 workers of the ticket vending contractor at Chandpole metro station for their unnotified protest causing inconvenience to passengers," JMRC Chief Managing Director N C Goyal said.

The contractor has been asked to appear before the JMRC, he said, adding that the Metro Police would probe the matter as per the metro rules.
