Vipin Mishra from Raigarh says that land mafia is very active these days in the area. Recently 194 cases came out where they have sold government and community land. In another interesting case 1500 acre of land was bought from villagers saying it will be used for growing herbs for medicines by Baba Ramdev. Now a power plant is coming up on that land. Villagers say they gave land for herbs and do not want a power plant but administration is hellbent to help the industry against people’s wishes by arranging public hearing.
