Tribal organisations in Wayanad district are preparing to intensify agitations, raising a slew of demands, including provision of land promised by the State government to the landless tribal families involved in the Muthanga agitation.
The tribal families, under the aegis of the Adivasi Gothra Mahasabha (AGM) and the Irulam Bhoo Samara Samithi, had resumed the land agitation on May 31 by erecting huts on Mariyanad estate after an interval of two decades in protest against the alleged denial of justice to tribespeople.
However, the government was yet to adopt any steps to hold a discussion with the agitators or provide the land to the tribal agitators, AGM leader M. Geethanadan told T he Hindu.
