Eight-member family forced to live in make-shift house on edge of property
For the past six years, Achutha from the Moger Scheduled Caste community and his eight-member family have been forced to live in a make-shift house on the edge of their own land in Bela village in Kasaragod.
They were evicted from their 40 cents of land in 2016 when another person, Susheela, who is from the same community, claimed the rights over the land. It came as a shock for the Achutha and his family, who had the possession of the land since 1946.
However, based on the complaint, the Vigilance Department, Kozhikode, conducted an inquiry and found that the ownership in the documents were changed at the village office.
