Advocates of Jharsuguda Bar Association staged a protest over pending work at Tehsil Office

Jharsuguda : Advocates of Jharsuguda Bar Association staged a protest in front of the Jharsuguda Tehsil Office due to delay in processing various tehsil-related works on Thursday.

Jharsuguda Bar Association President Advocate Trinath Gual said we are sitting in protest because all works of Public are lying pending from Land Patta to Certify copy, Misc Certificate, OLR, Kissam Change, etc. at Jharsuguda Tehsil Office and till now they are not doing any work and have been misleading Advocates too. The public is suffering a lot; the officer is not present at their Office. Till this issue is not resolved we will sit on dharna.

However, after the intervention and assurance by the Jharsuguda Sub collector Shiba Toppo, the Advocates had called off the strike.

Jharsuguda Sub Collector Shiba Toppo said, “We are planning to hold a special drive to dispose of the pending works. Simultaneously, we are streamlining the record room work too. Additionally, we have also appointed an additional tehsildar to dispose of the Misc Certificates.”
