Delhi Villagers Threaten Road Blockade Over Toll Tax
Villagers in Delhi are upset about a new toll tax and are threatening to block roads.
A local leader, Chaudhary Surender Solanki, is leading the protest.
They held a meeting and decided they want the toll tax removed, as they believe it shouldn't apply to them.
Solanki is going from village to village to gather support.
If the government doesn't agree to remove the tax by September 20, the villagers plan to block roads on September 21.
The villagers are also upset because they feel they were already treated unfairly when their land was taken by the government in the past, and are now expecting to be heard.
Rural leader Chaudhary Surender Solanki is mobilizing support for a toll tax waiver.
Villagers demand a waiver of toll tax for rural Delhi.
A 'Chakka Jam' (road blockade) is threatened for September 21 if demands are unmet.
Solanki is campaigning in villages to strengthen the protest.
Villagers feel aggrieved due to previous land acquisitions at low prices.
