The Yadgir district unit of the Akhila Karnataka Vishwakarma Mahasabha has urged the Zilla Panchayat to help hand over carpenter building in Chinnakar village of Gurmitkal taluk back to the families from whom the gram panchayat had taken it for use.
Addressing a press conference in Yadgir on Wednesday, district president of the mahasabha Mahesh Vishwakarma Tadabidi said that the building was constructed in 1985-86 under the National Rural Employment Programme (NREP) and handed over to 12 families of carpenters to run a business.
And, the officials of the gram panchayat requested the families to give them the building for their use, promising to return it to the carpenter families after making alternative arrangements for themselves, he said.
