4.UPLIFTMENT OF TRIBALS OF DHULE AND NANDURBAR DISTRICTS (MAHARASHTRA, INDIA) BY D.A.PATIL
Abstract
Extensive and intensive botanization was carried out during the last two decades in the erstwhile Dhule
district (presently Dhule and Nandurbar districts) of the state of Maharashtra. Pawara, Bhil. Kokani,
Mavachi, etc. are the main tribe especially in hilly tract of Satpura mountain and extended offshoots of
Western Ghats in these districts. The forests and forests products, besides the traditional cultivated crops
are the main sources of their sustenance. The present study attempts at highlighting plant species utilized
by them for medicine, food, dyes, gums, tannins, oils, fodder, fuel, timber, thatching huts and hedges,
agricultural and household implements, etc. It appeared worth suggesting that these districts are quite rich
in raw materials from viewpoint of cottage industries for upliftment of these people.
KEY WORD: Upliftment, Vegetable resources, Dhule-Nandurbar districts.
