Collector’s appeal to students
KORAPUT: Pattas cannot be issued for the piece of land occupied forcibly from others without undergoing official procedure as this way of transferring the ownership was against the law of the land, said Gadadhar Parida, district Collector.
He was addressing the students and faculty members of Central University here on Monday.
While narrating his experiences with tribals starting from the Bondas in Malkangiri district to the other tribal communities staying in various corners of Koraput district, he said that tribals lead a life by creating some space for others to live.
To demonstrate this truth before the students he described one of his experiences how a tribal couple had left a portion of the paddy field uncut for the birds to have some grains after they take away all the paddy for their own consumption.
The tribals in Narayanpatna and Bandhugaon too lived with such an attitude of sharing and it was the role of some instigators for which reason they are fighting against each other for the last many months, he said.
The district administration was keen on giving back all the land of the tribals to their family members that was illegally occupied by non-tribals from time to time.
