The survey for a proposed slaughterhouse in Pawangaon in Nagpur's Kamptee tehsil could not begun after villagers protested on Friday, a police official said.
The slaughterhouse, approved by the Nagpur Metropolitan Region Development Authority (NMRDA) and set to come up on a 3.13 hectare plot at a cost of Rs 17 crore, has been facing opposition from eight villages, he said.
''Officials who came for the survey had to return. Villagers have also been observing a hunger strike against the proposal,'' he said.
