One head for every tree
This was the slogan popularised by Nagul Dorla, the hero behind the Koi rebellion.He protested against the felling of sal trees in south Bastar.The contract was given to Contractors from Andhra Pradesh.when the English smelt danger they even offered to guard the labourers felling the trees! But Dorla with his men continued protests and resorted to beheading one person for every tree they felled.The Nizam of Hyderabad was flustered and prompted the British to withdraw the contract.Thus one man and his army saved the sal forests of South Bastar..How many people do we behead now for the amount of damage they are doing to the forests??What if these massive projects come up in bastar with their evil intentions??How many heads will roll??Nagul Dorla we need you now!!
