My name is Aparna Marandi. I am calling from Ranchi in Jharkhand to tell you about a day long dharna in front of Rajbhavan. The dharna was led by many social activist leaders and they demanded that foreign direct investment in retail should be withdrawn, all the coal block allocations in Jharkhand be cancelled and govt should not displace people without their wish. They also demanded the released of public artist Jeetan Marandi and anti displacement activist Lakhiram Rai. For more Aparna Ji can be reached at 09771949885

My name is Raju Kumar. I am calling from Chatra district of Jharkhand. I am noticing from last few years that the small fish varieties in the farms are not visible any more. In local language these fish varieties were known as Neta, Garai, Pothi etc. Similarly we do not find many frogs and different insects. I was told by people that because farmers here in this tribal and forest areas have also started using chemical fertilizer that is killing these fish, frog and insects. This is a natural disaster which needs to be checked. For more Raju can be reached at 09430313721

इस साझे घर की दीवारें
हिलने डुलने लगीं हैं अब
अक्सर टकरा उठते हैं आपस में
छोटे बड़े बर्तन सभी
और बंद हों जाते हैं
दरवाजे खिडकियाँ
टकराहट शुरू होती है
और खाली तसले सा कांपने लगता है
८० वर्षीय बाबा का तन बदन
अब रतियाँ सुनाई पडती हैं
देव खोली में सिसकियाँ
पुरखों यह कुटुम्ब जो जुड़ा रहा आपस में मया के तागे से
यह मेरी साँसों तन
राहट में गूंजता है
अंतरनाद दादी का
जनम से साझेपन को जीता आया
एक कवि ने कई रातों के नींद का बोझ लिए
बंटे हुए घरों की बस्ती में भटक रहा है
