The Orissa High Court on Wednesday ordered constitution of an advocates’ committee for assessment of the ground situation in Dhinkia, epicentre of anti-steel project in Jagatsinghpur district.
The HC also directed to facilitate villagers’ safe return to their respective homes.
The villagers had fled Dhinkia fearing arrest on January 14 when they had a clash with armed police over acquisition of land for the proposed 13.2–mtpa capacity steel plant.
