Alok Shukla is telling us about thousands of landless farmers in Kurud area in Dhamtari district of Chhattisgarh who got land 30-35 years ago under Land ceiling act. Now govt is taking them back. Some never got possession and got beaten up by police when tried to take possession. Now some officials are helping people sitting on those lands to sell to others not obeying a High Court order. Against all these a rally has been organised today. For more Alok can be reached at 09977634040

My name is Jacob John. Few days back I heard the story of Coal satyagraha on Swara and I am in full support and today I want to tell you story of a man called Rajmohan Basod whom I met recently in a similar coal mine area in Singrauli where Reliance is building their power plant. Mr Basod had a beautiful life at the bank of a river with 4 and half acre land and his family. He got only Rs 3 lakh as compensation because officers said his land is not irrigated though he took loan to install moters from bank. Today he works as a peon in Reliance. What is this? Is anybody listening? For more Mr John can be reached at 09039424639
