My name is Padaam Raju (village Krishan Sagar, Mushalamadugu G.P., Dhurgampadu Mandal, Khammam district, AP). We had migrated from Chatti village in Chinthuru Mandal (Khammam), 25-30 years back. We have recently got power supply and bore well. But we still do not have ration cards, patta for our lands. We have given petitions nearly 3-4 times to Project Officer, ITDA about our problems. But till now we have got no response from ITDA. We cast our votes too. We also gave Rs. 60,000/- for the purpose of getting land pattas, to V.R.O and M.R.O. Until now no one responded from government side. Not only me, we have 30 houses in our village. They are also facing similar problems. Please help us.For more Raju ji can be reached at 9502946226

Afzal Khan from Bhopalpatnam in Bijapur district of Chhattisgarh says after the start of Salwa Judum in 2005 Maoists had broken Govt buildings and Govt had moved ration shops for subsidized food to Bhopalpatnam town and people from Sandra area are traveling 80 kms to get their food since. This way a 2 rs kg rice costs Rs 22 while it reaches the adivasi. The adivasis have requested the Govt to give their ration for entire monsoon period in advance and we request the Govt to listen to their plea. For more Mr Khan can be reached at 09479214668
