Residents of Pujaribombu village under Baisinghi panchayat in Odisha’s Rayagada district threatened on Wednesday to launch an indefinite ‘Satyagraha’ (protest) from November 18, demanding basic connectivity facilities that have allegedly eluded them even 79 years after Independence. Affected landowners and farmer representatives have demanded clear written assurances on market valuation and fair compensation norms before field surveys or land acquisition proceed.
