They have forcibly closed three swissgates to drain the water and kept 25,000 people under water. Our paddy seedlings and farms worth crores of rupees have been destroyed. All agricultural land in the area was destroyed. We demand the administration to protect us by opening the three Swiss gates of water drainage. And take punitive action against those behind it
