Organizations/movement: Iqrit displaced villagers. Action: Residents challenged their exclusion from their village and obtained a Supreme Court ruling favourable to return. Result: The legal gain did not produce actual return. Authorities continued to prevent it. Impact / interpretation: The campaign demonstrates the difference between a favourable judgment and effective remedy. It became an enduring example of internal displacement and rights claims.
