Sundargarh: Hundreds of tribals from Kesramal in Rajgangpur block of Sundargarh district are on a 65 kilometre march to the Collector’s office in a struggle for their homeland.
The tribals are protesting the acquisition of 77 acres of land belonging to five panchayats for the expansion of Dalmia Cement Bharat Limited or OCL’s plant in Rajgangpur.
Two public hearings were also called for this but they could not be held due to the protests. After many agitations, the tribals have now taken out a march.
They started their march on October 18 and after spending last night at Badgaon, they resumed their journey today.
