Context

This data was extracted from the following paragraph of the newspaper clippings.

Farmers of Padia block in Malkangiri District are feeling the heat of Maoist violence as not a single agency has come forward to procure their paddy though the administration opened markets since December 26, reports The Times of India on January 7. Over 10,000 bags of paddy are lying in the open at Padia's mandi. We fear they may get damaged. With no one procuring our paddy, we are facing financial problems, said Laxman Sarkar, a farmer of Padia. Civil Supplies Officer, Malkangiri, Raghunath Gamang attributed it to Maoist violence. A few weeks ago, the Maoists blew up a bridge connecting Kalimela with Padia, disrupting movement of vehicular traffic. We are unable to procure paddy as heavy vehicles are not plying to Padia. We have appealed to the district administration to repair the bridge at the earliest, said Gamang.
