LSM stages rally demanding Govt land for SC/ST


PARLAKHEMUNDI: Demanding Government land for landless tribals and dalits of the district, the Lok Sangram Manch (LSM) staged a rally and held demonstration in front of the District Magistrate’s office here on Thursday.

Hundreds of tribals and dalits led by LSM leader Haribandhu Karjee came with a procession from New Bus-stand of the town to Collector’s office flaunting placards bearing different slogans to seek land right. According to the LSM leaders, the district administration is not solving the old and most complicated land dispute in the district. For that reason, most of the tribals are living in distress without land, they added.

The LSM members also said the district administration should bring the lands which are still in the possession of many landlords and Sahukars who had taken lands by cheating the innocent tribals long years ago. After demarcating the land, the administration should return the land to the tribals, they added.
