In a strong show of dissent, members of the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Yuvaka Sangha have announced a large-scale protest march in Anekal town on June 30, demanding immediate action on long-pending local issues and the transfer of corrupt officials. The rally will begin at ASB Grounds and culminate in a sit-in protest at the Anekal Taluk Office.

The announcement was made by state president of the Sangha, Marasuru M. Krishnappa, during the release of a protest handbill in front of the Ambedkar statue located in the Taluk Panchayat premises.

"Anekal is a border taluk where the majority of residents are farmers and the economically underprivileged. Yet, the Taluk Office has become inaccessible to them. Only the rich and those from real estate circles get their work done, while poor farmers and the common man are left out," Krishnappa alleged.

He further stated that the organization is raising its voice against injustice and seeks the immediate transfer of corrupt officers. “Dr. Ambedkar taught us the values of education, agitation, and organization. We are following his teachings and demanding our rightful dues,” he added.

The protest is also aimed at drawing attention to the alleged collusion between local officials and middlemen, which has hindered access to basic government services for the poor.

Immediate transfer of officers who have served for more than two years in the same post, issuance of land titles to the poor and rightful beneficiaries under Bagair Hukum cultivation.Investigation into alleged irregularities by the special Tahsildar of the Anekal Taluk Office. Action against land grabbing of plots reserved for economically weaker sections. Timely resolution of demands raised in previous protests, particularly those made on July 31, 2024.
