We lost 3 blocks this year(2007): We lost Bari, Binjharpur & Sukinda this year.

We have to find contacts in four uncovered blocks for full coverage of the District in 2008. Any help WELCOME.

e-address of Jagatsinghpur Block Development Officers(BDO) provided. You can write to them and liaison with them, particularly for uncovered blocks.
I would appreciate if you write back to me and extend help by taking responsibility of one of 314 blocks, even if they are covered, or any way you like to contribute, so that we can run a quality RMTS 2007 truly unearthing rural talents, who otherwise will wither away.

Thanking you in advance.

Best wishes,
Sandip
