Bhan Sahu is in a village with Jan Chetna Yatra in a Janjgir district of Chhattisgarh where the yatris are singing a Chhattisgarhi song:
विधानसभा मा देखो लुटैया बैठे हावे
संसद भवन मा देखो लुटैया बैठे हावे
मंत्रालय मा भी वही लुटैया बैठे हावे
इकर मन के लूट खसोट ला कतक दिन ला सहत जाबो
चलो चलो गा भैया जागो लड़ाई मा जागो

Harihar Diwan of Bamhedi village shares his story with Bhan Sahu during the Jan chetna Yatra. He says that people saw that their river Hasdu was polluted by the affluents of the Madhya Bharat Paper Mill. Many tribals who used to fish in the river are not out of their source of livelihood.
Then there was an acquisition drive for land for a power plant, which has been stalled by the villagers.
