Port Blair, Dec 06: Protest by nearly 242 Sri Lankan Tamil Settler families of Katchal Island will enter 20th day tomorrow while the relay hunger strike by them will enter 15th day.
The present protest by Sri Lankan Tamil Settler families has been intensified today to press their long pending demands of resettlement from Katchal Island to South Andaman region.
“We organized black day today. Nearly 500 people today organized a rally wearing black dress and black ribbon. Black flags were raised in our houses in protest against the delay from the side of Administration to respond. Even after so many days of protest the DC of Nicobar District has not come to Katchal Island to meet us and listen to our problems,” said Mr. Lawrence George Thomas, the Joint Secretary of Katchal Settlers’ Welfare Association
