In the working area of RDS aAbout 40 to 50 percent land is
available for cultivation which
is also hilly and uneven. Only
8 to 20 percent cultivable land
have irrigation facilities. Land
holding among tribal families
varies block to block but in our
target blocks Kherwara, Jhadol,
rearing and labour works. Tribals
keep cows, goats and sheep. Some
well to do families also rear
buffaloes. They plough fields
with the help of bullocks and
use animals dung as a fertilizer
for their rain crop.
Due to dependency on rain crop,
less rain fall or any irregularity
creates DROUGHT situation and
it claim big number of animals.
Due to degradation of forests
and improper development policies
of Govt. our region is ocnverted
in DROUGHT PRONE AREA. Every third
year we face drought and now it
is our fate. All drought always
made victims to local tribal,
who are backward and poor.
Local tribals are socially backward
having several social draw backs
like DEATH FEAST, POLLY MARRIAGES,
CHILD MARRIAGE, BRIDE PRICE, ENMITY
(REVENGE SYSTEM WITH VIOLENCE)
and Heavy use of country liquor
etc. Other side literacy percentage
is also very low in all TSP area.
Among tribal women, literacy percentage
is very low (less then 1% in tribal
blocks such as KOTRA and DHARIAWAD).
Condition of village amenities
is also very poor in tribal region.
More than 60% village are without
Tar roads, health care centers
and electricity. Facilities of
Telephones, transports and Banks
is a dream for rural areas.
