Naresh Bunkar is calling from Ghameri village Lormi block, Mungeli district Chhattisgarh and saying that 250 Baiga Adivasis had not received NREGA wages for road work done in March- April, 2014. The villagers learnt about CGNet through the Citizen Journalism Awareness Yatra on 22 August and reported their problem. Following the report, the officials responded and helped release the wages in October. The villagers thank CGnet Swara listeners and officers for their help. Naresh@9630770722.
