Hyderabad: The State committee of the banned CPI(Maoist) strongly condemned the police action targeting the residents of Lagacherla village, Kodangal constituency, where the farmers have been protesting against the establishment of a pharma city.
In a letter, Jagan, spokesperson for the Telangana State Committee of the Maoist Party, came down heavily on the Congress government’s stand. He accused the government of planning to seize natural resources and deprive farmers of their agricultural lands in Lagicherla for the pharma city project.
Jagan also highlighted that the Congress, which has been in power for 11 months, failed to fulfil its promises to the people. It was working for corporate interests instead. He accused the government of trampling on citizens’ rights and handing over the State to corporate entities.
