Produktbeschreibung

Tribal people live with a common topography and it is a common place for all the members of a particular tribe occupying that region. They have their particular living place, where they enjoy full freedom of their culture and customs. The tribes of Gujarat highly believe in religion and social life. They are very sensitive towards nature and especially animals. As they are in direct touch with the nature, some tribes worship animals too, & believe them as god and goddess. Health conditions in tribal areas of India have been described as incomplete in hygienic conditions, personal hygiene, and health education. Tribal areas are in worst situation even today. Because of low level of literacy they do not have basic awareness and knowledge regarding environmental sanitation. Poverty is also a major issue for the backwardness of them. Such people do not have an idea that what is the hygiene, sanitation and why is it important to survive in better way. Lack of personal hygiene leads tothe infectious diseases. Diarrhea, malaria, dengue, cholera and other diseases occur for the lack of the personal hygiene.
