Doyang Residents Plan January Rally to Demand Land Rights
People in Doyang, where families have lived for over 120 years, are upset because they don't legally own the land they live on.
They are planning a big meeting in January to ask the government to give them 'pattas,' which are like land ownership papers.
The people feel the government has been ignoring their requests, so they're making a public statement to get attention.
Many groups are supporting them, and they are determined to keep fighting until everyone has the rights to their land.
Doyang residents plan a major public rally for January to fight for land rights.
The decision followed a meeting organized by the All Doyang Farmers’ Association.
Thousands of families lack land ownership despite long-term settlement.
Residents are frustrated by the government's failure to grant land pattas.
The community criticizes local officials for being unresponsive to their demands.
