The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has called upon the people to boycott the public hearing on bauxite mining in Rayagada District of Odisha, reports odishabytes.com on October 15. In a handwritten letter released to the media on October 15, the 'secretary' of Bansadhara-Ghumusar-Nagabali division of the Maoists, Rita, said the proposed mining of bauxite at Sijimali under Kasipur block of the district was against the interests of the people. “The police have arrested 27 activists for raising their voice against the proposed mine in the last three months. It shows that the police, local administration, and companies were hands-in-glove for suppressing public opinion against the mine,” said Rita. Alleging that the administration was supporting the mining companies for vested interests, the Maoist leader said their activities were not only anti-people but also anti-national. She appealed to the people of Sijimali and neighbouring villages to strongly oppose the proposed mine at the public hearing to be held on Monday (October 16). It may be noted that thousands of people, along with pro-mine activists, took out a rally in Kasipur in the district on October 5 to express their support for mining of the bauxite ore. Vedanta has proposed mining of 9 MTPA bauxite on 1549.02 hectares in Sijimali.
