AN application by landless persons who wanted to form a Cooperative Society in the name of Samuhik Krishi Sahakari Samiti Mandalgarh made an application to attend the Tehsildar Mandalgarh for allotment of the land. That allotment was opposed by the Sarpanch. There has been a difference of opinion between the members of the Allotment Committee and the Tehsildar.
