What is your name?
Kesar, Adivasi.
Look at the cart, it is full.
They took away this whole forest of fruits, they took away this land.
Where should we die, where should we go?
The government is not giving boats, not giving compensation, not giving anything.
Whatever our rights are, we will take that much and not back down.
If not here, then we are at least sitting in this river.
How much compensation have you received so far?
Only our Hiralal has been given anything.
Only twelve and a half lakh.
You are a resident of Dhoddan village?
Yes.
You received twelve and a half lakh?
Yes.
Do you want it to be four times that amount?
We should get four times that amount.
And our village, as much of it as is being taken away…
They should get a village in exchange for their village too.
