Peddavoora (Nalgonda): The oustees of Nagarjuna Sagar project belonging to villages of PA Pally and Peddavora mandals are demanding formation of a separate mandal for the development and convenience to their villages. The oustees formed a human chain at Peddavoora to press their demand on Wednesday.

Speaking on the occasion, protestors informed that they formed villages near backwaters of Nagurjana Sagar Project and habitations on the hillocks after their villages inundated due to construction of Nagarjuna Sagar project. They said that they are facing many problems and keeping away from all sorts of development as their villages located 25 to 30 kms from both Peddavoora and PA Pally mandals. 

In view of this, they are demanding formation of a new mandal with Pulicherla as mandal headquarters for their convenience and development.  Villagers warned to intensify the agitation if government ignores their genuine demand, they added.

In this program, JAC leaders G Srinivas Reddy, B Satya Naryana, V Venkataiah, K Mutyam Reddy, Anjaneyulu, BYellaiah Goud, D Venkat Reddy, Laxmaiah, Srinaiah, Venkataiah and others participated.
