No NREGA work for primitive Korwa tribals so far!

Bindeshwari Lal Painkra from Kachnar Adivasi Vikas Sanstha in Surguja Chhattisarh is visiting a village for primitive tribe Korwas and discovers while talking to them that they have not got any NREGA work at all. They say though NREGA work started in the village but it went to others. Govt schemes are not reaching them. Some houses were broken by elephants in 2010. No compensation yet. There are no water, ho hospital, no electricity and they are forced to earn their livelihood from forest. For more Painkra ji can be reached at 08085913178
