First, tribals have to work hard. Tribals are not competent farmers. So, Bangladeshis are prospering in our agriculture sector. Look at the agricultural produce of Kharupetia near Mangaldoi town. Bangladeshis have taken over agriculture. They are not only good at growing crops and vegetables but also know to sell them. What is the use of forming so many tribal organisations when the ground reality is lack of work culture among tribals?
