"50% villages in Guna, MP have adivasi bonded laborers"

Bhan Sahu traveling with Jan Satyagraha Samvad yatra of Ekta Parishad has reached a village in Guna district where he meets a Saharia adivasi Munna Bhai who works as a bonded labor. Munna bhai tells her that more than half villages in the district have bonded labors. Munna bhai tells her that they are often taken on Rs 10,000 to work for a year and they feel that they will free after a year but the debt never finishes. The owner forces them to work on non-agriculture work and also beats them up. Bhan ji requests us to help these hapless people. For more Bhan ji can be reached at 09406033089
