Odisha Forest Staff Demand Reforms and Better Grievance Redressal

Odisha Forest Staff Demand Reforms and Better Grievance Redressal

Forest workers in Odisha, India, are asking for changes in their jobs because they are not happy.

They want a special group to handle tough situations and a commission to listen to their problems.

After a forest guard was killed, they feel it's time for a change.

They want to split the work so some people handle routine tasks and others focus on catching lawbreakers.

They want special training and more power for the new teams.

The workers have given a deadline, saying they will protest if their demands are not met.

The government is considering their requests.
