Koraput, Nov 24: In Koraput district’s Dasmantpur block, the Village Sathi Association, under the leadership of its president Narasingha Nayak, submitted an 18-point charter of demands to Dasmantpur Sadar Panchayat PEO Bikas Chandra Nayak.
After receiving the charter of demands, the PEO assured that necessary support would be provided to the mates as required. On the other hand, the association alleged strongly that although the government had selected Village Sathis in 2008 under the MGNREGA scheme to ensure proper functioning of project works and to maintain the attendance of daily wage workers, the administration today is neglecting the Village Sathis.
Therefore, the association demanded that the Panchayat, Block, and District administrations pay attention to the issue. This programme will be carried out across all blocks of the district with submission of similar charters of demands. The association has also warned that if their demands are not met, they will intensify their agitation in the coming days.
