The outfit has issued ultimatum to the panches and sarpanches to resign within a week or face dire consequences.
“All panches and sarpanches should resign within a week’s time. They should go to mosque and publically apologize for their mistakes. They should also publish their resignation in newspapers and keep its copy with themselves. They should produce these copies whenever they are asked so. They should desist from resorting to any wrongful activity otherwise they would be killed,” according to the posters.
