Some of Vemulaghat oustees face relocation again

Sometimes fate plays with lives people, a classic example is how the proposed Regional Ring Road (RRR) around Hyderabad is set to turn lives upside down for some farmers from Vemulaghat village, which was submerged under Mallannasagar.

The residents of Vemulaghat village, in Toguta mandal of Siddipet district, were forced to leave their homes, farms and livelihood two years ago as their village was submerged under Mallannasagar, a part of the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project. They are slowly getting accustomed to their new environment in the Vemulaghat village section of the Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R) Colony at Mutrajpally in Gajwel municipal limits.

Even before they have settled down properly some of the Vemulaghat oustees are facing relocation. It was not sure where they would be relocated but the sources say some 150 families may be forced to relocate to some other place in the Gajwel town limits. The officials are reported to have already identified the area where these families would be relocated.
