They demanded high level inquiry into the matter and dismissal of Kumar as well as drawing up a new list with genuine below poverty line persons in it.

They also submitted a memorandum to Deputy Commissioner, Udhampur. The protestors said if stern action was not taken against the local Sarpanch, they will hold protest in front of rural development ministry.
