During the meeting, the representatives projected several demands before the Divisional Commissioner Ramesh Kumar including the issue of land transfer, compensation under the relief package and other benefits. Representatives also sought an expeditious process of submission of files under the relief package. "The Divisional Commissioner gave a patient hearing and assured the representatives that all their genuine issues would be considered for early resolution," the press release said.
