Opposition Parties of Orissa demand action on the basis
of Saxena Committee Report:
Opposition party leaders of Orissa believe that Saxena
Committee report is a blue print of corruptions made during BJD
rule under Naveen Patnaik. ‘The state government and its
officials are caught red handed by the Saxena Committee for
giving wrong and manipulated information to the centre and to
the people as well. The transparent image of the government has
been proved to be an illusion with the remarks made by the
committee in the report. Knowing that the Vedanta Project is
going to affect the tribal communities largely by displacing
thousands of tribal families and their livelihood source
‘Niyamgiri’ would be destroyed for ever, neither the
administration nor the concerned departments gave a second
thought to pursue the deal with Vedanta Company. Now they are
all exposed’, says senior Congress Leader and MLA Santosh Singh
Saluja.

Primitive Tribals ready to take arms to Save
their god 'NiyamRaja': The
thick forest cover on the Niyamgiri hill range of Orissa is unique for
the
variety of flora and fauna and the wildlife that finds a suitable
habitation opportunity in it. But for the government and the London based
Vedanta Company, this thick vegetation, the wildlife and the bondage
between tribal communities and the Niyamgiri hill do not make any
sense except the bauxite the hill has in its belly. The company and
a corporate loving Orissa government are so allured with the huge
bauxite reserved inside the hill range that they do not bother to
displace thousands of tribal families living in and around the hill
range, destroying the unique thick green cover. And, to pursue the
heinous agenda in the name of development, police and local
administration has been repressive on the members of Dongria, Jernia
and other tribal communities who are opposing to the mining project.

Life between Cry and Agony - Facts from the
Red Corridor:
If Maoist
movement has become the greatest internal threat to India, the
operation started by the government to curb the armed rebellion has
endangered the communities living in the forests and the so called
Red Corridor. The situation is becoming worse than before as the
forces deployed to curb Maoist rebels have become the major
troublemaker to the innocent people.
The civil rights and opportunities to live life peacefully are
almost seized. Anybody raising a voice to safeguard the rights is
outright termed as a Maoist Rebel or a supporter. Either by the
Maoist rebels or the Security forces, reign of terror continues to
suppress the voice of people and communities living in the Naxal
affected areas. By Gladson Dungdung
