Coal Rly Siding Runs Into Local Resistance in Hemgir
The New Indian Express Jeypore
|March 01, 2025
Amid a looming pollution threat, villagers of Hemgir block have intensified protests to oppose the opening of a railway siding at Barpali for bulk coal transportation.
From February 3, villagers have resorted to indefinite agitation near the new railway siding, demanding intervention from the Sundargarh district administration to thwart attempts to operationalize it.
Sundargarh MLA Jogesh Singh, who is spearheading the agitation, said attempts to operationalize the railway siding were initially made in 2018 but faced protests from villagers. When the second attempt was made, Duduka panchayat at its gram sabha meeting in August 2021 passed a resolution opposing the railway siding, citing threats to the environment and accident hazards.
