Adivasis not getting forest land deeds because Govt says now they live in city!

My name is Raja Rathod. I am calling from Dornapal in Sukma district of Chhattisgarh. The population of Dornapal is 3-4000 but 3 years back it was declared a Nagar Panchayat by showing a much bigger population. More than 100 families of adivasis live in Dornapal for more than 35 years but their Forest Rights applications are not progresing because the officials say the act does not apply in cities. The adivasis are demanding that Dornapal be made a village again.For more Raja can be reached at 09479012000

Adivasis, Dalits discriminated in my village, Law does not help...

Santlal Prajapati from Satna district of Madhya Pradesh is telling us that adivasis and lower caste people are discriminated in his village in every field but law does not help them. The upper caste people have got a pukka raod in their part and use the kutcha road going towards adivasi area as dustbin. They start violence if objected. Upper caste people have ration cards but not the adivasis. Lower caste and adivasi people need to wait till upper caste people finish filling their water. Sometimes they need to wait for whole day and their turn never comes. For more Prajapati ji can be reached at 09826658253
