Dalits and Adivasis living a life of fear in Rewa district in Madhya Pradesh...

My name is Sangeeta. I am calling from Jaba block in Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh. We have just finished visiting 200 villages in a month long cycle yatra with Land Rights movement. In this Yatra I found that old are not getting Old age pension. Whoever is getting gets after 8/9 months. Some adivasis have got land deeds on 2001 but influential people have got possession of land. There is no light and road in adivasi and dalit colonies. They are living a life of fear. For more Sangeeta can be reached at 07354671394
