Allegation of encroachment of reserve forest by industries

Rajesh Tripathi from Raigarh says with connivance of forest officials at least a dozen industries are working inside the reserve forest there. Permission for use of reserver forest is only given by central government and in some cases officials have changed the boundary of forest to help industries. He claims at least 12,000 hectare of reserve forest is affected by these industries and demands a CBI enquiry. For more please contact Rajesh ji at 09424183510
