Dear friends
Thanks for this initiative. Do the PMI agrees to
record some  issues relating  Bhoodan land grabbing
matters in Orissa.If agrees, Pl.confirm . I will
supply the informations and will invite  media friends
 to collect the investigative data regarding  grabbing
of land distributed to landless Dalits   in Orissa in
connivance with some  powerful persons of the Society.
Seeking an early response.
