VIZIANAGARAM: The Communist Party of India (Marxist) has alleged that district officials and ruling party men are working hand in glove and exploiting the innocent. Even the police machinery was acting indifferently and denying justice to weaker sections and tribals in the district.
At a press conference on Monday, party district secretary M. Krishna Murty said that the governing body of the District Cooperative Marketing Society had recently passed a resolution favouring sale of 1.92acres of DCMS land along with structures, opposite RTC Complex junction, to an educational society owned by a Minister.
The society had taken the premises on lease in 1997 and established a degree college. The society had tried in vain to own the premises through bidding in 2006. When it was exposed in the media and opposition parties protested, the single bid received was cancelled.
Now, the resolution copy was pending before the Collector for onward dispatch to the government, he said.
Mr. Krishna Murty said at D. Kanapaka in Gurla mandal, 30 acres of konda poramboke land that some tribals had been cultivating for many decades was occupied by a ruling party member and revenue officials approved it, though, in fact, tribals were having rights over poramboke lands. Alleging that Congress was ignoring tribals' welfare, the CPI (M) leader quoted the demand of tribals pending for the last six decades for a bridge across the river Nagavali which bifurcates Komarada mandal. After relentless fight the government had sanctioned Rs. 3.65crores four years ago. Owing to underestimation of the work no contractor was ready to execute the work. But, the government had sanctioned Rs. 3crore for laying a road from RTC Complex via Thotapalem in the fort town for the benefit of the Minister's nephew in Pradeep Nagar and it was inaugurated by Union Minister of State for Human Resource D. Purandeswari on Monday.
In Cheepurupalli, though dhobis at P.K. Palavalasa were attacked recently when they stopped washing clothes of ruling party men demanding increased wages, the police, instead of registering a case and arresting the culprits, were pressuring dhobis to compromise, Mr. Krishna Murty alleged. His party would launch an agitation if no action was taken on ruling party men, he added.
