Eight new houses for Koraga families, who were displaced in 2009 at Nantoor, were inaugurated in Mangaluru on Sunday. Following their fight, championed by the Karnataka Aadivasi Hakkugala Samanvaya Samiti, these families now have eight houses in 550 square foot of government land. Following an order by the commission, each displaced family started getting rent since 2013. Mr. Shekar was living in a rented accommodation in Kulashekara, while Ms. Vasanti and her family lived in Moodshedde. The samiti had to prevail upon the Mangluru City Corporation to level the undulated terrain to enable construction of houses.
