Abstract

This paper writes about the customary land holdings among the indigenous peoples in the Duski village of Tripura. With time these customary land holdings had changed to formal modern legal titles. The drastic change of these customary land holdings has been affecting the people living in the village of Duski socio-economically. The Jhumia Rehabilitations facilities have been provided to the village people in order to compensate the village people but it was not as per their cultural livelihood. As such this paper writes about the miseries and hardships the village people are going through.

The state’s authorities were unable to understand the conditions of the village people and implement the right type of projects for the welfare of the village people as per their cultural aspirations. This paper writes about the failure of the projects and to what extent they benefitted the village people. As per the studies and findings on the case study of Duski village suggestions were also made to the state’s authorities for the upliftment of the village people. The methodology used in this paper is both primary and secondary. There was a need for greater reliance on primary sources of data collection.
