A.They had purchased around 10 to 12 acres of
land in Mouza Pathargadia since 1983 and taken possession of their respective
plots constructing boundary wall. But Sri Achyut Samant and Pramod Sahu, so-called land acquisition officer of KIIT with the
help of some local and hired
Goondas prevented and attacked us, when they attempted to enter into their respective
plots. Every time, whenever they tried to enter their land, the hired muscleman
of Achyut Samant obstructed them from entering into their field. Sri Achyut
Samant has also threatened them dire consequence, if they try to enter into the
premises of their land.

Achyut Samant has developed KIIT Tribal School which he claims model tribal
school in Odisha and marketed
it as part of his so-called image

Though one
year has
passed, the Commissionerate
police has failed to
enquire into the allegation
against Sri Achyut Samant despite
order being issued
by Governor, Odisha. The unholy criminal nexus of Sri Achyut Samant and
Police Commissioner is quite visible
in the state. The concerned,
senior citizen are
being tortured, humiliated and harassed
by both police and Achyut Samant. Forget the fate of the Common people.
