Farmers Stage Half-Naked Protest Outside Indore Development Authority Office

Farmers affected by the Ahilya Path scheme continued their indefinite protest for a third day outside the Indore Development Authority office in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Angered by the state government and IDA officials, a group of farmers staged a half-naked protest on the road outside the IDA office, expressing their grievances.

The protest is being led by the Bhartiya Kisan Evam Mazdoor Sena and the Ahilyapath Yojana Sangharsh Samiti. Farmers have been camping at the protest site around the clock, demanding immediate cancellation of the Ahilya Path scheme and a government notification removing restrictions on agricultural land. These restrictions have hindered their ability to freely use, sell, or develop their land, causing financial difficulties and impacting their livelihoods.

Despite multiple peaceful protests, no concrete decisions have been made to address the farmers' concerns. The farmers argued that this protest was necessary to draw the government's attention to their rights, dignity, and future. They warned that the agitation would intensify if their demands for the Ahilya Path scheme's cancellation and removal of land restrictions are not met.

Farmer leaders urged the government to take immediate action and provide clarity and relief regarding land rights.
