Handpump in adivasi areas not working for many months

Brijesh Kumar from Rewa district in Madhya Pradesh says handpump in the dalit-adivasi part of their village is not working from last 4 months. They have given written complaint to officials quite a few times but there is no action. There is a handpump near a upper class landed person who does not allow dalits and adivasis to take water from there and the poor people are forced to fetch water from far.
