Sajal Kumar from Dharmajaigarh in Raigarh district says a herd of 17 elephants have made life hell for farmers of the area from last few days. Lots of crop have been destroyed and today we have heard about death of two elephants. People have been calling forest department for help but no help has been provided. People have been demanding creation of elephant corridor but that has not been done either. 35 such elephants have been killed in the past in the same fashion. Now it will be worth seeing how administration tackles the rest of the elephants who are still in the area. For more Sajal ji can be reached at 09691010126

Sajal Kumar from Dharmajaigarh in Raigarh district says on 28th February public hearing for environment clearance for coal mines for DB power all the 438 people spoke against giving land to the company. Now most of the farmers who opposed giving land have got a registered thanks giving letter from the company which contains a post card as acknowledgement.
