 Press Reports
HARDOI in western Uttar Pradesh is a little over 90 km from Lucknow, the state capital.
In fact, driving through Hardoi is like travelling in a time machine to the wheat belts of the American mid-west in the early 1900s.
Back then, the problems were pretty much the same as farmers in Hardoi now live with- small regional markets and no standard grading systems for the wheat.

Administrators and pradhans (village chiefs) of Sandila and Hardoi blocks, entrusted with the task of implementing NREGS, were found to have blatantly misused their powers to forge muster rolls, siphon funds and disqualify legitimate job seekers.
This is contrary to the experience in other parts of the country under NREGS where similar social audits have been conducted, like Dungarpur in Rajasthan state, and Anantpur in Andhra Pradesh; also Sonebhadra in Uttar Pradesh where there has been large-scale employment of women under the job guarantee scheme.
In Hardoi and Sandila blocks caste and class divisions are formidable.

His usual posting is in Janpad Hardoi, but he has been assigned to one of the temporary Kumbh Mela police stations.
He came to Hardwar in December and will go back to Hardoi at the end of April, though he will be replaced with someone else, he said, and the police station will stay open until June.
At the Mela his job is "to maintain law and order." He patrols the ghats along the Ganges, he told me, to make sure that no one's luggage is being robbed while they are busy bathing, and to move along men who stop to ogle women changing their clothes after bathing.
