BACKROUND INFORMATION AND WORKS ON GOING IN TRIBAL AREA

Introduction : PALIYAN tribal - group is very backward at present scenario in Tamil Nadu that most of them are still in cave life in Sirumalai Hills and Palani Hills at endangered condition. They are not having even single time food and hunger and starvation are continued in their life. Roots, hunting and other forest available edible items give survival to them food. But in the occupation of plain/new people in the forest land and restriction / reserved areas by Govt, their areas have been shrunk to habituate and survival. 

In the forest and CAVES life, they are not having ration card, name in vote list and others whatever is being required as Identification to be Citizen because most of them are not come in to population census if not having house. Discrimination, human rights violence, death and birth whatever being are not in the counting if they not in to census yet. So, often murder and other violence have been taken place by the outer people if they were involved in slavery works, sex torture, sending out of the forest, etc that resulted them in to endangered population.

ROSI Foundation has been taking major role by its continuation works since the last 7years for the tribal of Sirumalai and PALANI Hills on Human rights, community certificate issues, solar lights provision, ration card and voter ID obtaining, MFP (Minor Forest Produces) and other issues based activities.

The tribal lives without light and security from animals and outsiders. Very few families have been rehabilitated from caves and dense forest. But most of families are living in a small thatched hut and caves without any basic amenities. Their traditional occupation and habitations are destroyed and they have become refugees. They live in a state of constant vigilance
