Tribals attack forest officials over demolition of huts
The New Indian Express Hyderabad
|June 17, 2025
TENSION prevailed in the Roheer forest area near Chalpaka village in Eturnagaram mandal, Mulugu district, on Monday after tribal residents obstructed forest officials from removing huts allegedly built on forest land.
Hundreds of tribal villagers gathered to prevent the demolition and engaged in heated arguments with the forest officials. Despite the resistance, officials deployed earthmovers and began dismantling the huts. In retaliation, some villagers attacked the officials with wooden pestles and smeared red chilli powder on Eturnagaram in-charge Forest Range Officer (FRO) Md Apsar and her staff, forcing them to flee.
