Members of the Kosal Kranti Dal (KKD) led by its leader Pramod Mishra and Dolamani Pradhan on Friday staged Rail Roko at the Balangir railway station and detained the Sambalpur-Rayagada Tapaswani Express and Nagawali Express trains. 
Mishra told the reporters, “As per our pre-decided progarmme, we are staging Rail Roko in Balangir, Jharsuguda, Sambalpur and Bargarh railway stations of the ‘Kosalanchal’ area (western Odisha) demanding a separate Kosal State. We demand formation of a separate Kosal State under Articles 2&3 of the Constitution of India.”
He further said, “Recently, the Centre has announced formation of a Telangana State. Unless the Centre gives recognition to a Kosal State, our agitation will continue. We planned to carry out Rail Roko throughout the day.”
The Government Railway Police (GRP) arrested more than 40 Kosal Kranti Dal activists, including Pramod Mishra and Dolamani Pradhan from the Rail Roko agitation spot.
