Bundelkhand Tribals Escalate Water Protest as Compensation Row Deepens in Panna
Hundreds of tribal residents affected by Madhya Pradeshโs Majhgaon irrigation project are continuing a month-long jal satyagraha in Panna district, demanding fair compensation, rehabilitation, and a transparent review of alleged irregularities in the acquisition process. The protest has intensified amid wider anger in Bundelkhand, where months of agitation over the Ken-Betwa river link project have already sharpened distrust of the stateโs water infrastructure plans.
