Community Correspondents

Anastasia Tigga

Anastasia is a Community Correspondent and mother of two.

She lives in Balumath of Latehar, a region densely populated with Oraon communities. She joined VV in June 2014 as a Community Correspondent for her neglected community. In her early days, she was hesitant that if people will not help, then how would she manage to make a video. But her apprehension vanished when she tried to raise the issues of Anganbadi and the support just poured in. She is now regarded as a community representative, and even government officials recognise her by name and give her due respect for taking initiatives on resolving public matters.
