ST status sought for Pardhis
Special Correspondent
HYDERABAD:
Tribals from various districts participated in a rally here on Thursday in support of the demand for inclusion of `pardhi' community among Scheduled Tribes.
In spite of rain, the large crowd went in a procession from Ambedkar Bhavan on Lower Tank Bund road to Indira Park where a public meeting was held. A hunger strike camp by pardhis was also being organised near the park for the last three days.
People who make a living by attracting passers-by with feats on roads performed at the meeting. A small girl who was held in the air with a pole was tossed further up and held in safe arms as she landed down. People who had monkeys clinging to their shoulders were among the crowd.
