Ho adivasis need irrigation, forest based industry,Mining helped outsiders...

Rabi Pradhan is talking to Madhusudanji a Ho adivasi social activist in Chaibasa area in Jharkhand who tells him that Govt has only used the Kolhan area for taking minerals away which has not helped the locals. This area needs irrigation and forest based local cottage industry but less than 5% area is irrigated. Ho adivasis have never tolerated outside influence and has a tradition of revolt but more outsiders are illegally taking away their land. Rabiji is @ 07766001622
