"We are having over more than 5000 population in Bhooned and having lot of issues pending at the Mandal office in Maddur. We are demanding a separate mandal headquarters for the people of Bhooned, as we feel the government can reach out to resolve the pending problems of the people speedily and effectively. As per the government norms Bhooned is having all necessary requirements for getting a mandal tag," said the protesting people with banners. The police stopped the rallying people from entering the district collectorate, however the protesters sat on the road and raised slogans. The police later tried to pacify the agitators and assured them their demands will be looked into and an amicable solution will be provided as soon as possible by the government.
