TRIBALS of Chalisingam hamlet in Cheemalapadu panchayat of Ravikamatham mandal in Anakapalle district have demanded immediate forest clearance for the construction of a road. They staged a unique protest on horseback and with dolis (makeshift stretchers) on Sunday to highlight the challenges they face due to the lack of road connectivity to their hilltop hamlet.

"Chalisingam is home to 110 tribal families with a population of 380. Even after 78 years of Independence, the hamlet lacks road connectivity, forcing people to depend on horses to transport essential supplies, including ration, from a depot in Chikayapadu at the foothill. The absence of a road has also made accessing healthcare and markets a daunting task," said K Govind
