Re: fact finding on Kandhamal Violence

Jharkhand Forum | Jharkhand Blog | Jharkhand Video | Jharkhand Network

Dear Senthil.

I talked about facts and analysis - not generalities - for a specific area and specific people.

Both christian and Hindutva missionaries denigrate tribal customs and traditions in Kandhmal - for example, one word that Swami Laxmananand always used was "ku-sanskar" for many kandha tribal traditions including ritual brewing and drinking. The Hindutva people differ in their approach of coopting the tribal cosmology and deities - but as inferior ones.

If you want to know more about Christian missionaries and Kandhs- read Padel's "Sacrifice of Human beings".

Regards

Kundan
