Balangir: Scores of women from flood-affected villages in Balangir staged a road blockade at Palace Line Chhak in Balangir town today protesting unavailability of relief materials and demanded immediate step by the administration.

The protest which started in the morning today witnessed women sitting on the Balangir-Titlagarh road and blocking it by burning tyres. The agitators also resorted to sloganeering against the district administration for the discrepancy in relief distribution.

Notably, incessant rainfall over past few days left several areas in Balangir submerged. Due to waterlogging people suffered a lot to meet their daily needs and remained confined to their homes.
