Warora, Acquired approximately 974.19 hectares of land in Ekona, Charurkhati, Marda, Vanoja, Namdev and Nagla Rit villages for expansion of Ekona Mines 1 and 2 of Wakoli. 842 landholders who have not got jobs till date. About 250 unemployed are included in this. Start the process of giving jobs to these project victims immediately, otherwise the project victims have given a letter to the council to close the coal mine on January 21.
The problem of job of the project victims of the village has not been solved till date. In this regard, correspondence has been done many times. But till date no solution has been found by the Wakoli administration. That is why the project-affected farmers have taken the role of agitation. Despite the survey being conducted by the Warora administration, the victims of the project have accused the farmers of not taking the problem seriously.
In this regard, it has been said on behalf of WCL that the list has been sent from WCL office to SDM only two months ago. But he has information about sending it to the District Collector for final approval. Due to this, the project victims are getting delayed in jobs. At the same time, coal is being extracted on this land by excavation towards Wakoli.
Whereas according to the rules, the victims of the project should have got jobs even before the start of the project. But Vekoli did not follow the rule. Therefore, from January 21, a warning has been given in the request to the General Manager of Wakoli to close the Akona mine. Dhananjay Pimpleshende, Marda Sarpanch Balaji Jogi, Chhotu Pimple, Sachin Lande and the project victim youth were present in the letter council.
