Blasius Tigga from Surguja in Chhattisgarh has reported in the past about administration demolishing 28 houses in Gangapur village overruling a Gram Sabha resolution. Today he speaks to Sarpanch and affected adivasis who have been living on the land from last more than 50 years. Surguja comes under Schedule 5 of Indian constitution and administration need to consult the Gram Sabha for any land related issue according to PESA law. Tigga Ji can be reached at 09406367804.

Blasius Tigga from Surguja Chhattisgarh says whole of Surguja district is under 5th schedule of Indian constitution and no land can be taken here without consultation with Gram Sabhas. But administration is continuously ignoring Gram Sabhas. I have reported in the past about breaking of houses of 6 Oraon tribals last week against the advise of Gram Sabha. To protest all this we are organising a Maha Gram Sabha on 7th April in front of collector office in Ambikapur. For more please contact Blasius ji at 09406367804
