The nilgai has become a thorn in the side of hundreds of thousand farmers in Bihar as no amount of preventive measures taken is working. Large tracts of land with ready-to-harvest produce are destroyed by herds of nilgai. Is killing the nilgai a solution to the problem?

आवारा पशुओं और नीलगाय जैसे जंगली जानवरों की वजह से किसान खेती नहीं कर पाते हैं। फसलों को बचाने के लिए किसान तारबंदी करते हैं, लेकिन हर एक किसान के लिए तारबंदी करना मुश्किल होता है, क्योंकि इससे लागत बढ़ जाती है। लेकिन सरकार की इस योजना से हर कोई अपनी फसल बचा सकता है।

A Gaon Connection ground report from the villages of Madhya Pradesh.

Whether it's the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, the Vishwanath Corridor in Varanasi, or the monuments devoted to political leaders in Lucknow, it is hard to ignore Mirzapur's contribution to the coveted pink sandstone. But the real cost is borne by the district's villagers who suffer diseases including tuberculosis, due to stone mining that has turned the region into a toxic dust bowl. A ground report.
