On 7th and 8th Feb, 2012-
cue- राजस्थान के भीलवाड़ा ज़िले में एक भील परिवार के दो बच्चों को भूख ने निगल लिया. गरीबी और कुपोषण की मार झेलते इस परिवार को न तो सरकारी दुकान से राशन मिल रहा था और न गांव में नरेगा का काम चल रहा था. लेकिन प्रशासन पूरे मामले की लीपा-पोती में जुटा है. सुनिए पाणिनि आनंद की यह विशेष रिपोर्ट--

cue- और चलिए आज मिलते हैं भीलवाड़ा के मांडल ब्लॉक के कुछ शिक्षकों से जो अपने प्रयासों से अवैध खनन से भी लड़ रहे हैं और पर्यावरण, शिक्षा और नारी अधिकारों के प्रति लोगों को जागरूक भी कर रहे हैं. जी हाँ, इन शिक्षकों ने खुद को पाठशाला तक सीमित नहीं रखा है बल्कि स्कूल में बच्चों को पढ़ाने के बाद ये जनजागरण के लिए टोली बनाकर निकल पड़ते हैं. सुनिए पाणिनि आनंद की यह विशेष रिपोर्ट—
