The revenue officials who went along with them to help them take possession of the house returned telling them that they would get back with clear instructions on what they should do if the house remains locked.
The district Collector gave the order restoring their house back to them after an inquiry into their allegations that they were deprived of minimum needs, confined to a room, and finally were driven out of their home.
