VKA delegation meet Kandhamal district administration
Bhubaneswar: (Visakeo),23/11 Vanavasi Kalyan Ashram State general secretary Dr Laxmikant Dash met Kandhamal Collector Dr Krishna Kumar and Superintendent of Police S Praveen Kumar urged them to stop indiscriminate arrest of innocent villagers. Dr Dash requested the district administration to take steps to bring back complete normalcy in Kandhamal and ensure no police excess on the Kandh tribals as in Rudangia, where six villagers were badly injured in police lathi charge.
“We have urged the administration to take steps, so that villagers staying in dense forest, could return back to their villages,” Dr Dash said in a statement on Sunday. He also demanded release of innocent tribals, who are languishing in various jails of South Orissa in connection with the communal violence. Arrested persons have no role in the violence, but the police coming under pressure, arrested them, Dr Dash charged. He also demanded adequate security measures for those, who are under threat.
"Police inaction against them had encouraged the miscreants belonging to one community to target the Hindus," he said. Both the Collector and SP assured us to stop indiscriminate arrest in the district, he added. Dr Dash also appealed to the Kandh tribals to return back to their respective villages. Meanwhile, he also reiterated that if the State Government failed to arrest the killers and conspirators of Swami Laxmananda Saraswati and four his disciples, VKA would further intensify the demands to arrest them.
