PARADIP (Odisha): Renewed land acquisition for Rs 52,000 crore Posco steel plant in Odisha's Jagatsinghpur district since Sunday, was affected for sometime today following a clash between anti-project activists and police with the protesters claiming injuries to some.

The agitators, including women and children, gathered outside Gobindpur village where land acquisition was in progress and clashed with police personnel demanding withdrawal of force and stalling the operation for sometime.

However, district Collector S K Mallick claimed that land acquisition process, including dismantling of betel-vines, continued as per plan.

"Demolition of betel vines was carried out manually during last two days. The administration has now started using machines for the purpose to speed up the process", Additional District Magistrate, Paradip Surjeet Das said.

"So far, 60 acres of the required additional 700 acres has been acquired since fresh acquisition began at Gobindpur on Sunday. It will gain pace hence forward", he said adding earlier 2000 acres had been acquired in the proposed site for the South Korean steel major's project.

Stepping up the demand for withdrawal of police force from the area, Posco Pratirodh Sangram Samiti (PPSS) leader Abhay Sahu today launched a hunger strike at nearby Patna Hat, while a large number of children joined the demonstration after shutting down their schools.

Police and demonstrators came face-to-face as students from about nine schools from nearby Dhinkia, Patna and Gobindpur gathered on the outskirts of Gobindpur.
