Bhubaneswar: Amitabh Thakur, IG of Police, Operations has said the incident in which six Odias were reportedly injured was a clash between two groups.
Thakur, who is supervising control room for Odia people stranded in other states, claimed that DSP of Kangayam in Tamil Nadu has conducted an inquiry into the incident and confirmed that it was a group clash. Both the warring groups have filed FIRs against each other, he added.
Earlier, it was reported that some Odias working in a private apparel unit at Uthukuli in Tamil Nadu’s Tiruppur district were allegedly beaten up by the manager and security personnel for demanding better food. Four women and two men were injured in the incident.
Around 1000 migrants from Odisha are engaged in the unit. Following the lockdown, they had no choice but to stay there and had since been provided only rice and rasam to eat.
The security personnel resorted to lathi-charge when they demanded better food, a migrant told a local news channel, adding that their plea to police to rescue them had also fallen on deaf ears.
