No knowledge about NREGA so migrating in search of work!
Shankarlal Jaiswal is telling us about a village called Jakhora which is 22 kms from district headquarter of Lalitpur in Bundelkhand. Though the village is chosen as an Ambedkar village but they have no roads. For drinking water they are dependent on ponds and wells. The ration they need to go 5 kms away and they have no idea about asking for work in NREGA so many are migrating to cities in search of work. For more Shankar ji can be reached at 09838358532

Nature is chaning its nature, may damage crops...
Shankarlal from Lalitpur in Bundelkhand says nature is behaving quite strangely these days. There is an old proverb saying if Kaas flowers are blooming, you can hear foxes in forest and webs of spider are visible in open that means the rains are over. But it is still rainy season here.There were rains when there should not be and there are little rains when it should rain. This can spoil the next crop.

Pls give phone numbers of authorities when you complain...
Kamayani Bali Mahabal is suggesting us that whenever we send a complaint to Swara we should have proper documentation of the case with details. And we should also give the telephone numbers of the officers who should be called on the case. She also says we should first try the existing channel of grievance redressal and we should come to Swara only when those normal channels do not deliver justice.

Youth choosing life of crime due to poverty, unemployment
Shankarlal Raikwar from Lalitpur in Uttar Pradesh says thanks to pervading unemployment and poverty youth in the area is choosing a dark future of gun and violence. He says police has arrested two boys with local pistols. But the bigger question is where does these guns come from? Where are they manufactured?
