Jagan wants justice for displaced

                                                         
Opposing the laxity of Uranium Corporation of India (UCIL) in redressing the grievances of the villagers whose lands have been acquired for the project, the YSR Congress chief and Kadapa MP, Mr Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, came down heavily against the officials.
Taking part in a meeting with the UCIL officials at the R & B Guest House here on Saturday, Mr Jagan said that the fate of the displaced was left in lurch though they were running from pillar-to-post to get compensations and job opportunities for the last five years.
He questioned the rationale behind giving jobs to the people of other districts and other states.
Saying that he will boycott the meetings till the displaced were provided justice, Mr Jagan walked out of the meeting.
Knowing this on phone, the district collector, Mr Anil Kumar, directed the Jammalamadugu RDO, Mr Venkataramana Red-dy, to cancel the meeting.
