People living in far-off areas mostly from the tribal community participated in the protest in huge numbers. They denounced the policy of evicting people from the land terming it an injustice and anti-human.
Notably, the JK admin has ordered the eviction of “encroachments” from the alleged state land by January 31 this month. The order has created widespread protests while politicians have expressed resentment, asking the government to reconsider the decision.
The protest that was led by tribal leaders urged the LG administration to roll back the order saying that it will render thousands of people homeless in this chilly season.
The drive to evict people from the state land is underway in every district.
