Tensions escalated at Ramoji Film City (RFC) on Wednesday, March 26, as leaders from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM) joined forces with victims of alleged land encroachment to stage a protest.
The demonstrators accused RFC management of unlawfully encroaching upon lands designated for the poor. The situation intensified when CPM leaders breached the gates of RFC, demanding justice for affected families.
They conducted a sit-in protest on the disputed land, asserting their claims after months of “unproductive negotiations” with RFC management regarding alternative housing solutions.
