On 10 January, thousands of tribals climbed the mountain and raised slogans against the Jain community, who they say have encroached their lands and established a hegemony over tribal lands, customs, and practices in the area. These protest started soon after union government accepted the demands of the Jain community protesting against a 2019 government notification to make the Jain pilgrim site of Parasnath a eco-tourist hub.
In this ground report we try to understand the situation on the ground and the factors responsible for the tension between Jain and tribals.
