Govt can't take adivasi land without conscent, says activist

Prakash Gupta is with Jan Chetna Yatra today which has reached Surajpur district in Chhattisgarh. He helps us listen to their leader Vijay Bhai who is telling the farmers that their ancestors fought and got a law which says even Govt can nt take an inch of their land if they do not want. The problem is that people do not know about it. He says if they land is given to the industrialists the state will not belong to the farmers any more. The Yatra had started on 13th May from Korba and is talking to farmers in North Chhattisgarh. For more Prakash Ji can be reached at 07697852665
