POLLACHI: Shutters were down in Jameen Uthukuli town panchayat and Samathur, near here, on Tuesday in protest against the proposal of Delimitation Commission to attach their area with Udumalpet Assembly constituency.
The people wanted that their area should either remain with Pollachi Assembly segment or with the Aanamalai constituency, as announced in the draft scheme of the Commission.
More than 750 residents including 200 women took out a procession to Pollachi sub-collector’s office to press their demand.
