A protest demonstration by the CPI (M) cadres in pursuit
of their demand for allotment of house sites to all the shelterless
poor in the town into the office of the Revenue Divisional
Officer on Monday. Mild tension prevailed at the
entrance of the RDO’s office when the police stopped the protesters
from venturing into the building.
Later, the agitated
CPI (M) cadres staged a protest demonstration in front of the office
denouncing the alleged apathetic attitude of the government towards
fulfilling the housing needs of thousands of hapless poor of the town. The leaders of the party's frontal organisations also participated in the demonstration.
