Miscreants drive away workers in Kalinga Nagar

JAJPUR: Anti-displacement agitators drove away labour suppliers and petty contractors from Tata steel project site at the Kalinga Nagar industrial area today. Eight of them, who reached the site on motorcycles and about to begin work to level the ground, were confronted by around 25 masked youths. The labour suppliers and petty contractors then fled from the spot leaving their vehicles behind which were then set ablaze by the agitators. Sources said the agitators were in the age group of 20s and 30s. The miscreants also torched a tipper used in the ground levelling work and injured two persons including an old woman who happens to be a Tata supporter. The injured were admitted to the local government hospital and one of them was later shifted to a private hospital in Bhubaneswar after her condition deteriorated. The injured have been identified as Raimani Deogan (60), residing in Tata Transit Colony and Dusmanta Behera, a tipper driver. Confirming the incident, SP D S Kuttey said identity of most of the persons involved has been established and they would be rounded up soon. Visthapan Virodhi Jan Manch secretary Rabindra Jarika denied the group’s involvement in the incident.
