FRA: Working on forest land in Andhra for 30 years but not got land deeds...

My name is Savalam Shekhar. I am calling from Vigitota village, Chinturu mandal of Khammam district in Andhra Pradesh. We are doing podu cultivation here from more than 30 years. But we are yet to get land deeds under Forest Rights Act for the forest land we are cultivating. We have been to forest officials many times but they do not help. They only harass us. Pls help us. For more Shekhar Ji can be reached at 09494318364
