ADILABAD: Farmers in Adilabad staged a rasta roko between Niraml and Bhinsa district in protest against a proposal to establish an ethanol factory at Gundampally in Dilawarpur mandal. They have been agitating for five months now against the factory. Opposing the move, the protesters also boycotted the caste survey in their villages recently.
On Tuesday, the residents from four villages blocked the roads and demanded that the state government stop the construction of the ethanol factory.
They displayed posters of former minister A Indrakaran Reddy, MLA A Maheshwar Reddy and DCC president Sridhar Rao, accusing them of neglecting the constituency and failing to address public concerns.
