Mania village is situated under Tangi PS in Cuttack district. At the beginning of the village there is a big sahi habited by Gopal Caste (OBC) families; inside the village there is a small sahi where 12 SC (Pana) families live. The Gopal sahi is connected with the main road with a wide road while a narrow road connects the dalit sahi to the village main road. At the beginning of the dalit sahi road, a community centre for the Gopal caste has been constructed and by its side a boring point for water supply has been dug encroaching the dalit sahi road. Few days back, one person namely Gourang Das belonging to Gopal caste started construction of a wall obstructing the dalit sahi road. The Dalits lodged a complaint to the Revenue Inspector (R.I.) of the area; the R.I. visited the spot and cautioned Gourang Das not to construct the wall on the road. But the accused person did not stop construction. Then they lodged a police complaint but no steps were taken. The dalits requested for our intervention. Followed by the request, a Fact Finding was done and the matter was brought to the notice of the Suptd. of Police Cuttack (Rural). After that FIR was registered.
