About 100 villagers from the Dalitwada of Mambakam village of Varadaiahpalem mandal in the district on Thursday encroached the sprawling 40 acre of the Kalki Bhagawan Ashram and earmarked their individual borders.
According to information reaching here, villagers reached the ashram surrounded by the reserve forest early in the morning. Carrying farm equipment like crowbars, sickles and pickaxes, they started clearing bushes and made individual boundaries, writing their names on the rocks.
Police at Satyavedu and Varadaiahpalem station received information around 10.30 am, but there was no action from them. Similarly, the management of Kalki Bhagawan Ashram, located 12 km from the encroached land, also did not respond.
Villages claimed that the lands originally belonged to them and the ashram personnel had taken these over, making false promises.
They remained there till dusk and later left for their hamlet.
