Blasting in Coal mines damages houses, Police files cases against protesters!

Rajesh Tripathi from Jan Chetna in Raigarh in Chhattisgarh is telling us that in village Sarasmal of Gharghoda block houses got damaged due to blasting in coal mines of Jindal steel and people protested. But instead of taking action against the company police have filed an allegedly false case against 15 vllagers for attacking Jindal workers. Now vllagers are organising a rally from 3rd January till 5th January against the govt action. For more Rajesh Ji can be reached at 09424183510
