Railway Encroachment: Residents protest against drive

NAUDERO: The people, who had built houses on railway land which had been encroached upon, protested outside the President Camp House in Larkana on Thursday to demand that the land be leased to them. Some people even tried self immolation by attempting to light themselves on fire but were saved by the police. The protesters said that they had been living here for the last 60 years and appealed to the government not to raze their houses.
