In Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, tribal families have been carrying out a 'chita andolan' (funeral pyre protest) for nine days straight to oppose the Ken-Betwa river linking initiative. The demonstrators gathered near the Barana River bridge and lay on mock funeral pyres, claiming they face displacement without receiving any compensation. They are calling for proper rehabilitation and have threatened to take their own lives if their requirements are not addressed.
