Tension prevailed at Gangoor in Arkalgud taluk on Tuesday after the freed bonded labourers of the Dalit colony in the village staged a protest demanding grant of land at Gobbali Reserve Forest. The villagers had planned to till the forest land as a mark of protest, forcing the district administration to deploy hundreds of policemen to avert any untoward incident. As many as 91 people, who were freed as bonded labourers in 1994, have been demanding land to cultivate for the last 27 years. The villagers continued to cultivate the forest land, as they had no other land to cultivate.
