Indigenous peoples ask, the Freedom of Religion Act 2017, is there an issue of wordings or intent?

Was there a game plan behind banning Hansda’s book – “The Adivasi Will Not Dance”?

Why the Fifth Scheduled Areas today still a relevant issue!

"Tribe follows tribes, and nation follows nation.

It’s like the waves of the sea,

 it is the order of nature and regret is useless.

 Your time of decay may be distant,

 but it will surely come, for even the white man’s God,

 who walked & talked with him,as friend with friend,

 could not escape the common destiny.

 We may be brothers after all, we shall see!"

       1854 a prophesy by Chief Seattle (1786-1866)

Wisdom lay in the forests with people who have lived here, cherished it and imbibed it into their traditions! Being a part of the living traditions are breathing in into the sagas that has given reason for life to live in fullness with dignity.
