Farmers Want Their Land Back from Obalapuram Mining Firm

Bellary (India): About 1,000 farmers from Andhra Pradesh today staged a protest in front of the Obulapuram Mining Company (OMC), owned by the Reddy brothers, demanding that their land acquired for the company be returned to them.

The protesters, led by Hyderabad CPI MLA K Ramakrishna, razed three security sheds erected by OMC at its office in Obulapuram, 20 km from here, and also pulled down the sign boards of the company alleging it had also encroached their lands, police said adding they dispersed later.
