These kolam tribals are landless framers doing cultivation on this land since 1950 onward and recentely last year Govt. of India by way of legislation granted them right of land and they have been already listed by local administration for this purpose of giving the patta to these kolam tribal,vidarbha .Vidarbha Janandolan Samiti(VJAS) Kishor Tiwari informed today ..

“we have called the protest rally at in village walwat on 29th November to update the farmers and tribal who are likely to become landless and others regarding environmental impact and damage to the forest as public hearing were not conducted before such serious decision are taken .we welcome the industries but not at the cost of agriculture and with such massive deep rooted corruption and mega land scam in the name of development” Tiwari said.
