An Odisha man has kept a school under siege for 5 days, demanding a house for himself.

A man in the Sundargarh district of Odisha, India has caused a stir by keeping a government-run school under siege for five days. His demands? A house, a boundary wall, and a garden for himself, as well as property worth 100 crore rupees in his village. The authorities were forced to intervene with a team of 60 personnel from the police, fire brigade, and district voluntary force, along with a drone camera and a metallic net.

The man, identified as Dhani Munda, is a tribal resident of Phuljhar village. He has been living on the terrace of the Badjal Government Primary School, armed with a bow and arrows, a slingshot, and stones. His actions have caused injuries to two policemen and the school headmaster, who were unfortunate enough to come close to him.

The incident began on Saturday, when Munda got into an altercation with the headmaster. After hitting him with a stone using his slingshot, Munda locked himself inside the school building and declared it to be his own. He even went so far as to drop a note from the terrace outlining his demands when the police tried to communicate with him through a public address system.

The school has been closed since Monday, and students have been attending classes in a nearby institute. Munda, on the other hand, has been occupying the school's terrace and shouting "This is my house" repeatedly. He has even threatened local youths who attempted to climb onto the roof.

The police were informed of the situation, and the inspector in charge of Mahulpada police station, Suresh Chandra Pradhan, arrived at the scene with his team. However, when they tried to approach Munda using a ladder, he hit Pradhan with an arrow, causing him to be hospitalized. Another police officer was also injured in the process.

At this point, the Sub-Divisional Police Officer of Bonai, Swaraj Devta, and the fire brigade personnel were called in. A drone camera was used to locate Munda on the roof, and a team of policemen, along with the fire brigade and district voluntary force, approached him from different sides. They were able to successfully capture him using a metallic net designed to stop arrows and stones.

It was discovered that Munda had been surviving on the ration stored for the school students during his five-day stay on the terrace. He has now been arrested and taken to the local police station. The Rourkela SP Brijesh Ray confirmed that Munda's demands will be investigated and addressed accordingly. The school building will also be thoroughly inspected for any damage caused during Munda's occupation.
