Four Arrested in Silsako Eviction Protest; Women Launch Sit-In

People who lost their homes because their wetland area was cleared for a project were protesting to get help and fair payment.

On Wednesday, police came to where they were protesting, and a small fight happened.

Police took away some people, including four men who were later arrested.

These four men were arrested because they were protesting in a group without asking the police first, which is against a new rule.

Many women whose homes were also taken have started sitting outside the police station.

They want the four arrested men to be let go because they say the protest was peaceful.

These families have been trying for years to get proper homes or money for the ones they lost, but they say nothing has been done.
