9 years on, family of Birju Baiga still running pillar to post to get promised land

My name is Naresh Bunkar. I am calling from Pandaria in Kawardha district of Chhattisgarh. Today I want to tell you about the family of Birju Baiga who was killed by a forest official in 2003. Then chief miniser Mr Ajit Jogi had promised to give 5 acre of land to wife and son of late Birju Baiga. But after 9 years the family is still running from pillar to post and have not got possession of land. Collector Kawardha have been requested about it but he also has not taken any action. For more Bunkar Ji can be reached at 08720822286
