About
Semiliguda |
Semiliguda is a small town which is situated in the Koraput
district of the state Odisha, India. The population generally
comprises migrants from other parts of Odisha, Bihar,
Jharkhand, West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh though there are a
large number of the Koraputiyans as well.
Semiliguda has been a victim of the Naxalism, with some
incidents of business men being killed, or threatened for
ransom, by the Naxals. Such violence has resulted in a slowing
of development in Semiliguda. The construction of Central
University is under process.
Besides the native koraputiyan people have also retailed back
because of the migratory population being the rich class there
and the native population being impoverished. They have
resorted to several means of snatching the land or extracting
money from the migratory population. |
