Book Description
Amrutara Santana is about the Kandhas or Kondhs, who number at least a million, spreadthrough at least a dozen districts. Mohanthy's unromanticised portrait of tribal society raises profound question on change. Do new roads really bring "development", or degradation of culture and community as they allow exploiters and denigrators of Adivasi culture to pour in?
