About 22 lakh acres of land was donated to Vinoba from united Bihar during the Bhudan movement. This was more than that donated in any other part of the country. 62 years down the line people have forgotten Vinoba feels Vijay Bhai of Bihar Sarvodaya Mandal, Patna. The government and the Bhoodan committee is playing around with the donated land in a shameful way which is not only unfair to the poor beneficiaries, and insulting to the great leader, it is also against the very spirit of the Bhoodan movement.
Between 4th and 6th Novemeber, a satyagrah was held in the Hiding Park of Patna where about 5000 Bhoodan farmers gathered for a fast. The hungry and thirsty crowd camped for three days but not a single Government official even visited them to listen to their plaint.Thrice earlier, people had demonstrated – in Saharsa three ministers even visited and assured people of suitable action. Bihar Sarvodya Mandal filed a PIL in Patna High Court in 2007. The government was granted a two year period for taking corrective action by the honorable court- but nothing has happened.

जिला-कानपूर उत्तरप्रदेश से के एम् भाई कविता एक सुना रहे है:
तूम तोड़ो तुम बाटो तुम रोको-
हम जोड़ेगे हम फिर खड़े होंगे-
हम फिर चलेंगे नारे भी लगेंगे झंडे भी गड़ेंगे-
नारे भी लगेंगे झंडे भी लहरायेंगे-
अपने अधिकारों के लिए-
हम फिर आवाज उठायेंगे...(184402)
