Govt must buy forest produce from adivasis at fixed rate to stop exploitation...

Pradeep in Alirajpur district of MP says theirs is an Adivasi district and livelihood of adivasis is mostly dependent on selling forest produce like Mahua, Tadi, Mango, Sendhola, Gum, honey etc. But he says Govt is not fixing a rate for these and Adivasis often get cheated by businessmen. He talks to an adivasi who collects Mahua and Tadi but often gets lesser rates. Pls call Collector at 9425188061 to request Govt to buy in fixed rates. Pradeep@8085902811
