Pannulal Dhritlahre from Chhattisgarh Mahila Manch says that affected villagers from the proposed barrage on Mahanadi in Janjgir-Champa district have started an indefinite dharna against the dam. They say unless their demands are met they will not allow the dam. Villagers say Govt plans to give water to companies whereas this will adversely affect the farmers so they should be given job then only the work on dam should go ahead.

Kaladas Daharia from Chhattisgarh Mukti Morcha says Govt was publicising in newspapers in last few days that the liquor shops will be closed during Diwali festival and if any one finds a shop open they should call the officers. We found shops open and called up the officials but they were not keen to take any actions. It looks Govt is doing only a show and actually making lots of money by selling liquor which is destroying our culture and festivals. For more Kaladas Ji can be reached at 07828106705

चलो रे चलो रे भाई संगठ निर्माण करो
लड़ेंगे भाई लड़ेंगे हां भाई लड़ेंगे, आगे खूब लड़ाई
गुलामी की जंजीर अभी भी बंधाया है
इज्ज़त अधिकार पर बेडियाँ लगाया है
रोजी रोटी मिलता नहीं तबाही मचाया है
जल जंगल जमीन को हमसे छीन रहा है
कहेंगे भाई कहेंगे, हां भाई बनो नियोगी भाई
बहना मेरे आओ, भाई मेरे आओ
संघर्ष को बढाओ, इन्कलाब लाओ
मजदूर किसान आओ संगठन बनाओ
नहीं रखेंगे नहीं रखेंगे पूंजीवाद की परछाई
कहने के तो बहुत है कितने को कहें
लूट दमन झूठ को कितना अब सहें
सहने से अच्छा है लडके जो मरता है
वही कदम मंजिल को आगे बढाता है
बढ़ो भाई बढ़ो, हां हां भाई बढ़ो, ले मशाले बढ़ो
आओ सब मिलके नई दुनिया बनाएंगे
एशिया की धरती पे पूंजीवाद को दफनाएंगे
हौसला बुलंद हो तो मंजिल को पाएंगे
मेहनतकश वर्ग को राजसात दिलाएंगे
