Tribal killing

Tribals in Orissa are now up in arms against the State Government's apathy towards those displaced by various industries in the past. As many as 12 tribal men and women were gunned down by the police on January 2 when wthy opposed construction of a boundary wall for the proposed steel plant of Tata Steel at Kalinga Nagar in Jajpur district. Since then the tribals are strongly opposing mineral-based industrialisation by displacing them from their land and homes.
