In Bastar's 'Shaheen Bagh', a Youth-Led Movement Quietly Perseveres Every effort is being made to repress the mass movement and paint it as a front of the Maoists. But the peaceful protest against a CRPF camp shows no sign of letting up. The dharna at Silger. Photo: Nandini Sundar Rights7 hours ago Silger (Chhattisgarh): Silger was like any other Koya village in Konta or Bijapur before it became the symbol of a non-violent struggle against security camps. The village has four hamlets, a sacred grove, fields that shade into forest, a Patel or headman and a Pujari or priest. Like other villages in the area, Silger found its life upturned by the Salwa Judum, a state sponsored vigilante movement against Maoists and villagers.
