My name is Naresh Bunkar. I am calling from Adivasi Jan Van adhikar manch in Kawardha in Chhattisgarh. I want to tell you that in this district officials are not recognising other traditional forest dwellers in their survey for forest rights act. Though we know that non adivasi people in other districts have got forest land rights in the state and law says the same. So this is being done in Kawardha. This needs to be investigated.

My name is Jang Sai Koya. I am calling from Rajpur block in Chhattisgarh. We are very pained with the attitude of forest officials towards adivasis. Though Forest Act says if an adivasi has applied for forest land no action should be taken till the application is decided. But forest officials misbehaved with Mr ramchander who is living on forest land from 1991. A case has been registered but no action has been taken against the officials. You are requested to help.
