Ground report by Santoshi Markam on the tribal demonstration in New Delhi demanding that the Forest Rights Act, 2006, be strictly enforced.

New Delhi: On February 13, the Supreme Court directed the eviction of families whose claims had been rejected under the Forest Rights Act – an order impacting over 10 lakh tribals and other forest dwellers across the country. After the order, various tribal organisations protested against the eviction of tribals from the forest in New Delhi on Saturday.
