Dalits Relentlessly Protest Land Grab, CPI And Congress Join In

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Andhra Pradesh: Over a decade after securing land through struggle, Dalit farmers in Kadapa are once again fighting to reclaim their rights, staging a 13-day relay hunger strike with support from CPI and Congress leaders who have warned of intensified agitation if justice is denied.


  • Historic struggle reignited over same land

CPI City Secretary Venkata Shiva and Congress State General Secretary Ali Khan recalled that Dalits acquired the land in 2005 after years of protests, hunger strikes, and resistance. Despite cultivating the land for 15 years, they are now forced to protest again as the same land has allegedly been taken over.

“This land was won through blood, sweat, and hunger strikes. It must remain with the Dalits,” they said.

  • Thirteen days of protest, still no official response

Speaking at the relay hunger strike organized by the Dalit Tribal Rights Struggle Association at the Kadapa RTO office, the leaders condemned the administration’s silence even after 13 days of peaceful protest. “If authorities ignore Dalit issues, the people will revolt. This is a warning, not just a statement,” they cautioned.

  • Exploitation of Dalits still unchecked

CPI and Congress leaders emphasized that despite promises of equality, systemic exploitation continues. Wealthy elites, they alleged, use their power to rob the poor, while justice for Dalits remains elusive. “The world is moving forward, but Dalits are being pushed backward—crushed under the weight of inequality and official apathy.”

  • Political support and pledge of direct participation

Both parties declared full support for the relay hunger strike and promised to join future protests in person. “We stand by you until the land of Dalits belongs to Dalits,” they affirmed.

  • Protestors and community voices stay sesolute

Among those participating in the hunger strike were Obulesu, Diwakar, Venkatasubbaiah, Chinna Subbaiah, and Balakrishna. The program also saw the participation of women’s group leader Bhagyalakshmi, Dalit Tribal Rights Struggle Association district honorary president Venkateshu, Madagalam Prasad, and other villagers.

The leaders warned: “We will intensify the movement if the land issue of the Dalits is not resolved.”

The protest reflects a larger demand for justice, dignity, and rightful ownership in a system that continues to sideline Dalit voices.
