00:00India is home to nearly 104 million Adivasis. Adivasi means original inhabitant. The Adivasis

00:22who have lived in the forest from ancient times and protected the ecosystem were called

00:28destroyers of the forest. According to the government's own statistics, between 1950

00:34and 1980, various state governments and the central government had diverted more than

00:40430,000 hectares of forests to mining, industries, farming and dams.

00:59Is Baghmara your village?

01:01Yes.

01:02And you don't know anything about it?

01:04No, we don't know anything.

01:05But you are saying that it is the land of the forest.

01:07Yes.

01:08Is it true that there is no village in that forest area?

01:10Adivasis don't live there?

01:12There must be around 24 villages affected in that area.

01:15When the mine opens, there will be an explosion.

01:17There will be a bomb.

01:19So where will the mountain go?

01:21It will go to the fields, right?

01:23Yes.

01:24And how much water will be needed for that?

01:26We will have to wash it.

01:28In our village, the gold that is mined, ask them how much water is needed.

01:32It is mined in the river.

01:34So it is a company.

01:36How big a house will it make?

01:38How much explosive material will it use?

01:40So the whole area will be destroyed.

01:44The environment there will be destroyed.

01:46Today, in a district, 24,000 crore rupees.

02:00In the coming days,

02:08I can foresee the change that will come in the life of this bastar.

02:26Your name is Bagli?

02:27Bagli.

02:28How many cows do you have?

02:29Forty.

02:30Forty cows.

02:31How many buffaloes do you have?

02:32I don't have buffaloes.

02:33You don't have buffaloes.

02:34Where will you take them?

02:35Where will you keep them?

02:36This is a government law.

02:37What can we do about it?

02:38I don't get anything in my stomach.

02:40I don't even get clothes.

02:41What can I do?

02:42What can we do about it?

02:43This is a government law.

02:44Sir, take them.

02:45Or you know it very well.

02:46You can auction them off in the court.

02:48I get what I want in my stomach.

02:50Take them.

02:52The forest acts really do not provide for saving of the rights which the tribals have.

02:59And there are no exceptions made.

03:02And the result is that the tribals who continuously live in the forest are being prosecuted under the various acts.
