Question

Why do you think the villagers and the tribals set up this organisation?

Answer 1

The villagers and the tribals set up the organisation of Tawa Matsya Sangh (TMS) to give a collective voice to their demand for equality and struggle for fishing rights in the Tawa river. In addition to this, the organisation was also a good alternative to secure their financial well being, for marketing their produce and for checking the monopolistic attitude of the state-level corporations.
