Speaking to reporters here, BS Hussain, a leader of the Samithi  accused MRPL of using the Police Department to curb the agitation through such false cases. He said the MRPL has flouted all  rules by releasing effluents of the plants to water sources and by  spilling coke  powder on the road while transportation.

He also regretted the fact that the district administration has so far not  taken serious note of the problems.

Samithi leaders PV Rao, Muneer Katipalla and others were present.
