00:00Right now, we are standing right behind Mandal Kara, which is the 96th block of Thave block in Gopalganj district.
00:06We can see water flowing on the farmers' land.
00:10There are some farmers among us.
00:12You can clearly see the faces of these farmers.
00:17There is a silence on their faces.
00:19There is also a hope that a person will come and get their land from the jail administration.
00:27We are occupying the land because the water that flows from the jail administration
00:32is spread all over the farmers' land.
00:35These problems have been going on for years.
00:37First, I would like to show you a picture.
00:39You can see that this is a canal.
00:42It is a small canal and this canal has been closed.
00:45But the dirty water from the jail administration, the sewage water, flows into this canal.
00:52You can see this picture right next to it.
00:54You can see that this is a farmer's land and it has become a pond.
00:59It has become a pond because this problem has been going on for years.
01:05The water has been completely filled.
01:09Because of this, the farmers have not been able to wash their hands of this land.
01:13Because if there is no crop in this land, then what will they do?
01:18Many times, they have also appealed to the authorities, but no one has been heard.
01:23You can see the picture around here.
01:25It is filled with water from all four sides.
01:27As far as our eyes can see, only water is visible.
01:30And right next to it, some farmers are cutting paddy.
01:34They are standing in the middle of the water and cutting paddy.
01:38Even in today's weather, there is water in their fields.
01:42And there are many such farmers, about 10 to 15 such farmers.
01:47Many acres of their land are becoming barren and useless.
01:53These farmers are not able to grow crops in their fields even if they want to.
01:58You can see this picture.
01:59The farmers are so tired that someone will come and solve their problem.
02:06You can see that this is the boundary of the jail.
02:08Many farmers are standing around here.
02:12As soon as we got the information that these farmers have reached here,
02:16tell me, what is the problem?
02:18The problem is that a lot of water has broken and is flowing into our fields.
02:22For the past 15 years, we have left a lot of fields.
02:26We have been ruling this area.
02:29We are not getting our property.
02:31This area is full.
02:32If this area is filled, then the entire Changwar will be filled.
02:37This area is full for years.
02:39Have you filed a complaint?
02:40We have filed a lot of complaints.
02:41We have even filed a complaint to the DM.
02:43We have filed a lot of complaints, but no one has listened to us.
02:46You don't grow crops in your fields?
02:49No, we don't grow crops.
02:51This is Mahatam Rai.
02:52He told us that because of the water that is flowing into his fields, it has become a pond.
02:57What is your name and what is the problem?
02:59My name is Dheeraj Singh.
03:00There are a lot of problems with this water.
03:03First of all, it is a waste water.
03:04It is spreading diseases in the village.
03:06We have at least 20 acres of land here, which has not been ploughed for many years.
03:14As you can see, there is nothing here.
03:20And there is a lot of difficulty in cutting and ploughing.
03:24We had filed a complaint, but no one listened to us.
03:29We met the jailor here.
03:31The jailor told us that there were 300 prisoners earlier.
03:36Now there are 17 prisoners here.
03:39We keep the key to the tube well with us.
03:42And we give water from time to time.
03:45We say that we give water from time to time.
03:47But look, you give water.
03:49We have a roof over our heads.
03:51So he said, yes, we will say something.
03:55He said, yes, your disapproval is justified.
03:57But we have done it up to the top.
04:01What is the problem?
04:03Ever since the jail was built, there has been a problem of 12 to 15 farmers.
04:11We have filed a complaint many times.
04:13To the jailor or to the DM.
04:16In the form of application.
04:19But no one listened to us.
04:22It would have been better if we could solve this problem as God.
04:28Because we have lost.
04:30Because no one listens.
04:32Not even from the people's representatives.
04:34Not even from the people's representatives.
04:36But they didn't listen either.
04:38No, we won't leave it.
04:40Now after that, we will take our form.
04:44Then we will tie the water.
04:46After that, whatever will happen, will be seen.
04:50If there was water, we would have cut down the paddy field.
04:53Is the paddy field in the water?
04:55Yes, it is in the water.
04:59As soon as the paddy field is cut down, the paddy field is submerged.
05:03The paddy field has fallen.
05:05All the paddy fields have fallen.
05:07All the paddy fields are in the water.
05:09There must be some arrangement.
05:11From where?
05:15Yes.
05:16There is water in the paddy field.
05:18We are poor people.
05:20How can we cut down the paddy field?
05:22There are 10 laborers.
05:24The jailers don't know where the water has fallen.
05:28When the jail was built, they should have arranged for water.
05:31Or not?
05:36We are labourers.
05:38How long will it take to cut down the paddy field?
05:40How long will it take or not?
05:42What are you doing?
05:46There are 10 paddy fields.
05:48We are cutting down the paddy fields.
05:50We were cutting down the paddy fields.
05:52What will happen to the paddy fields?
05:54We are labourers.
05:56We had such a good paddy field.
05:58None of it will go to our house.
06:00After that, the farmers will say, give us half of it.
06:02From where will we give?
06:04Where does the water come from?
06:06The water comes from the jail.
06:08All the dirty water comes from the jail.
06:10If we cut down the paddy fields,
06:12we won't get sick.
06:14Tell me.
06:16What will you do now?
06:18What will we do now?
06:20We are doing what we were supposed to do.
06:22After that, what will we do?
06:24Will the jailer take it or not?
06:26What is your name?
06:28My name is Chathuram.
06:30So, definitely, the problem of the farmers
06:32is justified.
06:34It is justified because
06:36it is not right
06:38to water the paddy fields
06:40with the help of the jailers.
06:42The district administration
06:44should also pay attention to this issue.
06:46The people's representatives
06:48should also take action
06:50to solve their problems
06:52so that the farmers
06:54can feed their farmers.
