Removal of T-point triggers violent protests in Hansi; local authorities face backlash against unfulfilled water promises
Fresh tension erupted in Channot village after authorities removed an allegedly illegal T-point water connection late Monday night. Protests led to police using tear gas and lathicharge, injuring an ASI. This reignited a long-standing water dispute, despite villagers believing their demands were accepted earlier. Officials maintain the connection was unauthorized, while promising alternative water supply arrangements for the village.
