Unavailable secretaries affect development work in Panchayats
Kamlesh Painkra from Bijapur in Chhattisgarh is interviewing Adivasi journalist Santosh Punem about the current situation in this Naxal affected district. Mr Punem says the weekly markets have started once again which is a very good sign but all the secreataries of Gram Panchayats still live in district headquarters and do not visit the villages which is not allowing development work to reach people
