State agricultural labour union to hold statewide protest on Sept 16 demanding houses and pattas for the poor
The state agricultural labour union plans statewide protests on Sept 16 to press the government to provide houses and pattas to landless and poor families.
The Tamil Nadu state agricultural labour union has announced a statewide large-scale protest on September 16, demanding that the government provide houses and land pattas to the poor. The union criticised the removal of vulnerable dwellings in several areas and urged the state to allocate funds and housing for landless poor families.
The union called for concrete steps including allocation of land, patta issuance and construction of secure 600 sq ft dwellings for affected families, and warned of mass mobilization if demands are not met.
