Jeetanram, a Pahadi Korwa adivasi had called Swara 15 days back with problems from his village and glad to share that yesterday Govt officials visited his village Salkheta in Raigarh district in Chhattisgarh. They have sanctioned 7 wells, 1 tube well, School and Anganwadi building and road. They have assured 2 oxen to 28 families each and goats to 7. They have also assured pensions. If these assurances are not met he will again call on Swara. Jeetan@8224054734

My name is Sani Ram Pahadi Korwa. I am from Chhuipahar village in Dharamjaigarh block of Raigarh district in Chhattisgarh. Our village of 50 houses is on top of hill and we dont have road, anganwadi, hand pump, electricity or school. It is very difficult to take our sick to hospital. We have been requesting Govt for road for long but no one listens. Though forest people are opposing but from last year we have started making road ourselves. SaniramJi@9479598133
