Fisheries can be another money earning exercise for poor adivasi farmers

My name is Narayan Singh Porte. I am calling from Jaitahari in Anuppur district of Madhya Pradesh.Today I want to tell my fellow farmers about fisheries. I am the first adivasi farmer of my area who have ventured in this business. I got support of Rs 2.5 lakhs from govt and banks gave me equal amount in loan. In first attempt I could earn a profit of Rs 1.5 lakh after expenses. I think my fellow farmers can earn more by joining fisheries in their work. For more they can contact me at 09179875163/9424358442

Demand to ban tourism in Kanha National Park in Madhya Pradesh

My name is Darbu Singh Uike. I am calling from Kanha national Park in Madhya Pradesh. Under the banner of Gondwana Mukti Sena we organised a rally on 26th demanding ban on tourism in Kanha. The villagers say that earlier there were lots of tigers and villagers were also happy. Now only tourists are happy and both tigers and villagers are disappearing. More than 200 vehicles enter Kanha every day, which causes pollution and forest dept people harass the villagers. This must stop. For more Uike Ji can be reached at 07354737515
