The delay in implementing the long-pending Kalasa Banduri Nala Project has forced those involved in the agitation to relaunch the Mahadayi agitation unless a clear assurance is given from the Union government.
In a meeting on the issue convened by Kalasa Banduri Horata Samithi at the Karnatak Vidyavardhakh Sangha in Dharwad on Tuesday, the agitators resolved to relaunch the agitation if the Union government fails to give a clear assurance to them on the issue.
Speaking to presspersons after the meeting, farmer leader Shankar Ambali said that first a delegation of farmers and activists will meet Union Minister for Parliamentary Affairs, Coal and Mines Pralhad Joshi in the coming days in their effort to get a clear picture on the Union government’s stand on the issue.
