The Sabars of Singhbhum

A photo-essay on the Sabars, an identified Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group, who survive—live is hardly the word—in the most extreme conditions in East Singhbhum district of Jharkhand.In the forested hills of East Singhbhum district, Jharkhand, the hunter-gatherer Sabars live in distress and despair. The myopic, profit-driven mainstream development paradigm is at the heart of forest resource depletion and wildlife extinction that has affected the lives of the Sabars.
