ARPAN meeting of Raji and Bhotia women

One of 38 items in the series: Kavita Rastogi Collection available on this site.

Description

Photograph of a cluster meeting that was organized by a local NGO 'ARPAN'. At this lunch meeting, Rastogi met many Raji women to cross-check spellings of various Raji words. Bhotia tribal women were also invited. Though educationally, economically, and socially, Bhotia are better off, Rajis consider themselves King of the forest, so many elderly Raji ladies did not have food as the Bhotia ladies were cooking food.
