The works which began on Saturday have been wrapped up.
The two dry wells in question which are decades old are located in agricultural fields belonging to Srinivas Reddy’s family and no one else had access to it.
Police investigation has reportedly been completed and a charge sheet is expected to be filed soon. Hajipur villagers have also demanded a fast track court to try the accused.
Meanwhile, Bommalaramaram sub-inspector L Madhu Babu told TOI that police security and patrolling was being provided in the village.
The village is awaiting the visit of TRS working president K T Rama Rao who promised to reach out to the victims’ families after the crimes came to light.
A local leader, Venkatesh said that construction of a flyover between Hajipur and Machanpalli would make the village safer. Presently, to reach Bhongir, villagers have to take a 25km route. Once the flyover is constructed, the travel distance would reduce to 15km.
