Kalahandi District Residents Protest for Bauxite Mine Openings

Imagine a place called Kalahandi where there's a lot of a special rock called bauxite, which is used to make things.

People there are upset because they want to start using this rock from their own area.

They held a big gathering to ask for the bauxite mines to be opened quickly.

The group in charge of the protest was called Lanjigarh Anchalik Vikash Parishad.

The people leading the protest said there's no need to buy this rock from other places when they have plenty of it themselves.

This is because they want to create jobs and make money from the rock in their area.
