Jagatsinghpur/Nuagaon/Bhubaneshwar (Orissa), Dec 12: Social activist Medha Patkar, who led a protest rally here, has accused the State Government of forcibly acquiring land for the 12 billion dollar steel plant planned by South Korean steel maker POSCO.
Patkar, on her way to Nuagaon village to meet anti-POSCO activists sitting on a hunger strike, was shown placards by the pro-POSCO activists, who wanted Patkar to go back.
However, a determined Patkar went ahead and entered Nuagaon village and met the anti-POSCO activists.
