  6. Course of presentation • Introduction • Tribal issues • Case studies • Outcome and conclusion

  7. Tribals • Globalisation is not merely a question of marginalisation for indigenous peoples it is a multi-pronged attack on the very foundation of their existence and livelihoods • There are resources but ferociously sought by global corporations, trying to push traditional societies off their lands • New trade and investment agreements, which are opening up previously inaccessible territory to industrial extraction of natural resources, has forced indigenous peoples to defend their homelands

  8. Bastar

  9. Bastar : the case of colonial onslaught • The Bastar region is full of forest which bears lots of resources • Besides it has also been a shelter for indigenous people since long time • Government declared forests as reserves and it is these tribal people who had not only maintained the ecological and environmental balances but also whose life was based on the forest, had to now face a state of deprivation. • Nakabandi came in picture

  10. Failure of Tribal Sub Plan • Apathy of government • Flaw on part of beurocracy • No proper participation from tribal people • Forest being declared as reserves • Onset of Industrialisation • Pollution increased and whole environmental balance was disturbed • There was no care and surety for the source of income of tribal people involved

  11. The case of Bodh Ghat • Bodh Ghat was the area in Bastar region through which river Indravati flowed and it was a proposed site for construction of a hydel power plant • Agriculrure and forest the main source of livelihood. • There was no plan of what will be the future source of irrigation and how it will work in near by areas after execution of hydel power project. • No proper plan regarding rehabilitation and sustainable livelihood generation of tribals

  12. Is rehabilitation a solution • Will the rehabilitation take place as a community or as an individual • What will be its impact on up growing children • From where will government find an equally big and suitable piece of land to rehabilitate the migrated people in the same way as they use to live here • What will be the solution to social necessities like primary health centre, hospital, schools and post office • What will happen if they face a bad year in new place

  13. Case (ii) Community ownership over industries • Proposal of establishment of Steel plant at a place called Mavalibhata in Bastar • Issues that needed to focused were firstly the nature of control over and ownership of natural resources, the ownership over surplus and positive outcomes and lastly the entitlement and responsibilities of ordinary people in the merging system.

The case of Mavalibhata • A move for exploitation of man power and human resource by setting up industry • As such over harnessing of natural resource • Gradual creation of market and market forces thereby transferring the control to other hands • People movement took place that resulted in historical Mavalibhata declaration.

  15. Mavalibhata declaration • Formulated on December 5, 1992 • Agitation again proposed steel plant • Preamble : “We will intensify our struggles for basic changes in the institutional Structure, national laws and for establishment of a new order in Which the people will enjoy undisputed rights over resources, they Will be partner in development, everyone will have a place of honour in the new economy and the right to life with dignity of every citizen will be on-violable”.

  16. Mavalibhata declaration Contd.. • The process of encroachment on tribal resources in the name of developmentwas highlighted. 4 key highlights were • Nation • Tribal Areas • Bastar and Mavalibhata • Democratic Norms and Human Rights

  17. Government’s Initiative; questionable???? • The Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) Strategy has been adopted for all round development of tribal areas throughout the country since Fifth Five-Year Plan. Under the TSP approach almost entire tribal inhabited area have been covered under one of the following, depending upon their population percentile: i)Integrated Area Development Project (ITDPs) ii)Modified Area Development Approach (MADA) iii)Clusters iv)Primitive Tribal Groups • Tribal bill Draft • National tribal policy

  18. Connection with RLLE • Similar situation faced by Kondh tribe in Rayagada district • Deprived of facility and no care from side of government. • Industries and factories are utilizing natural resources based in tribal areas but not even a hint of profit being shared to local communities.

  19. Difficulties faced • Scattered information in books • Lack of arranged quantitative information • Diffculty in getting real picture of role played by NGO.

  20. conclusion • Care needs to be taken regarding use of natural resources as they are depleting day by day • Exploitation of manpower has to be checked “ let us live peacefully and let others also live peacefully. No tree will ever bear sweet fruit if it is nurtured by tears and sufferings of many people” • Time for society to arise, awake and step ahead
