Got land deeds under FRA but forest officials still do not allow us to cultivate...

Achchhelal Adivasi is visiting village Rehdi in Dabhura block of Rewa district in Madhya Pradesh where he meets adivasi families who tell him that they got their land deeds under forest rights act in 2009 but the forest department officials are not allowing them to cultivate, plant trees and make hedges. One of the adivasis Bhola says the officials harass us because they demand bribe which they are unable to pay. For more Achchhelal Ji can be reached at 09685579985
