Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Wedne🐈sday gave a clarion call to the country’s tribals to be united to fight for their existence.

He said destructive forces and religious fanatics were out to oppress ꦓthem and control their resources. 

He said t𝕴ribal society is unorganised and divided and that is the reason their issues, whether in Ma💫nipur or Jharkhand, are unheard, PTI reported. 

The JMM leader also claimed that around 80 per cent of those who were displaced because of indu𓃲strial projects are tribals, it mentioned.

"There sho♔uld be talks among them to fight the forces that are all out to control their natural res🌼ources, identity and culture," Soren said addressing the Jharkhand Adivasi Mahotsav in Ranchi, the report said. 

Tribals in various parts of the country such as Manipur, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Gujar༺at, Rajasthan and Tamil Nဣadu are struggling for their identity, while destructive forces are all out to oppress them, he said, the report mentioned.

"Today, on the occasion of World Tribal Day, I appeal to more than 13 crore tribal brothers and sisters of the country to fight unitedly and move forward. G🃏ond, Munda, Bhil, Kuki, Meena, Santhal, Asur, Oraon, Chero - all have to think unitedly,” he was𒐪 quoted as having said.  

“Today, the tribal society of the country is scattered. We are divided on the basis of caste, religion and region, though everyone's culture is the same. If the blood is one, society should also be one. Our goal should also be the same. The texture of our problem is almost the same, so our fight should also be the same," Soren said, as per the rep🔯ort. 

The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha leader asserted that tribals in different areas of the country are facing harassment and are forced to fight for their existence, it added.
