Sehore: Fifty Dalit families here in Madhya Pradesh have sought Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s permission for euthanasia, alleging the land granted to them 15 years ago by government is occupied by musclemen which has left them with no means to sustain livelihood.
The families belong to Nasrullahganj area in Budhni, the assembly constituency of Chouhan and had two days ago sent a memorandum to the chief minister’s office in Bhopal in this regard. However, district authorities denied receiving any such complaint and said a case in this regard was being being heard in court. “These families of Borkhedi, Vasudev, Sohankhedi and Jogala villages under Nasrullaganj police station area of Budhni in Sehore, the home district of Chouhan, have signed a memorandum that they have not yet got the tracts of government land given to them as help 15 years ago as it was in possession of influential persons,” Rashtriya Dalit Chetna Manch state secretary Jaswant Singh said today.
“We have not yet got the land in possession of musclemen, who are threatening to eliminate us,” said the memorandum signed by the Dalits families. The local administration is helpless and the Dalits were not getting justice even after staging protests and agitation, Singh claimed. (PTI)
