Armed tribals take out rally in Dudhari
Correspondent
KORAPUT: Thousands of tribal men and women from Kanti, Talagumandi, Bija Ghati, Kotia, Tentulipadar, Dumuripadar and Dudhari panchayats equipped with traditional arms took out a huge rally at Dudhari on Tuesday.
The members under the leadership of Alam Tading, president of the regional unit of the Chasi Mulia Adivasi at Kanti, had blocked the roads leading to the village by felling trees to prevent anyone from entering the village during the meeting.
A group of young people while guarding the blocking points had even asked all the members to hand over their mobile phones to check any leakage of information on the meeting. The members of the sangh also destroyed at least 1,000 liters of country liquor from around 30 houses in the village. They warned the businessmen not to sell liquor in the region, the sources added.
