The 50 odd residents of the Jat-dominated Bhagana village of Hisar district met AICC general secretary in-charge for Haryana, B K Hariprasad and submitted him a memorandum alleging that Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda is not paying attention to their grievance.

The bare-bodied villagers were protesting outside the AICC headquarters. Hariprasad assured the villagers to talk to the Chief Minister to resolve their problems.

The villagers had also submitted a memorandum to President Pratibha Patil on June 12.

Convener of the Sarv Samaj Sangharsh Samiti Kanwar Ved Pal Tanwar and national convener of Rashtriya Navchetna Sangathan Vijay Somani alleged in the memorandum that when they protested against the atrocities, they were booked in false cases.
