The farmers, residents and small industries owners who are likely to be affected by the land acquisition for the proposed Neelambur – Mettuppalayam bypass road on Tuesday staged a demonstration in front of Red Cross Society building on Huzur Road in the city.
The demonstrators led by Tamilaga Vivasayigal Sangham president M.R. Sivasamy said that only through agitations the proposed land acquisitions could be stopped. The demonstrators urged the Government to convert the existing Mettuppalayam Road into a four-lane road rather than laying a bypass road acquiring agricultural lands, residential colonies and industrial units. The victims have resolved to strengthen their struggle through series of agitations.
