Sajal Kumar from Dharmajaigarh in Raigarh district says a herd of 17 elephants have made life hell for farmers of the area from last few days. Lots of crop have been destroyed and today we have heard about death of two elephants. People have been calling forest department for help but no help has been provided. People have been demanding creation of elephant corridor but that has not been done either. 35 such elephants have been killed in the past in the same fashion. Now it will be worth seeing how administration tackles the rest of the elephants who are still in the area. For more Sajal ji can be reached at 09691010126

Gend Lal Sayyam is telling us about their problems around Revenue land and not forest Land. The villagers have applied for lands many time but no one is paying attention. They are being sent from pillar to post.The MNREGA scheme is not being run well. The payment was made not in 15 days as prescribed, sometimes for 4 months. First we were told that the rate would be 120 rupees per day, but the payment was made at the rate of 65 rupees per day. With the result, no one wants to do Panchayat work. People prefer to migrate and earn outside , they need to take care of their families.For more please contact Sayyam Ji at 07382668804
