&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;In Odisha, both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the harvesting season for bamboo and kendu leaf approaches in Odisha, tension is building between the forest-dependent communities and the forest department.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Kalahandi district, around 100 Gram Sabhas are planning to assert their rights over bamboo and kendu leaf despite legal curtails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In Kalahandi Jangal Manch meeting on February 28, we decided to assert rights over bamboo and kendu by harvesting and selling them ourselves because it is our land and we have the right over these resources. We have told the forest department and we will carry out the harvesting activity towards the end of April and starting of May,&amp;rdquo; says Kunjabihari Chandan, president of Kalahandi Gram Sabha Samuh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite legally given rights on Minor Forest Produce (MFP) like bamboo and kendu under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), communities have encountered constant roadblocks in enjoying these rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;While FRA gives rights over MFPs which include bamboo and kendu, in Odisha both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them,&amp;rdquo; says Sudhansu Sekar Deo, a Kalahandi-based forest rights activist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The disjunction between the central law&amp;ndash;FRA&amp;mdash;and how things are unfolding for the people is also evident in the policies of the state government.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Responding to a Right to Information (RTI) request, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Odisha has told communities that they only have the right to transport MFPs on head, bullock cart or bicycle.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;In Odisha, both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the harvesting season for bamboo and kendu leaf approaches in Odisha, tension is building between the forest-dependent communities and the forest department.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Kalahandi district, around 100 Gram Sabhas are planning to assert their rights over bamboo and kendu leaf despite legal curtails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In Kalahandi Jangal Manch meeting on February 28, we decided to assert rights over bamboo and kendu by harvesting and selling them ourselves because it is our land and we have the right over these resources. We have told the forest department and we will carry out the harvesting activity towards the end of April and starting of May,&amp;rdquo; says Kunjabihari Chandan, president of Kalahandi Gram Sabha Samuh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite legally given rights on Minor Forest Produce (MFP) like bamboo and kendu under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), communities have encountered constant roadblocks in enjoying these rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;While FRA gives rights over MFPs which include bamboo and kendu, in Odisha both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them,&amp;rdquo; says Sudhansu Sekar Deo, a Kalahandi-based forest rights activist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The disjunction between the central law&amp;ndash;FRA&amp;mdash;and how things are unfolding for the people is also evident in the policies of the state government.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Responding to a Right to Information (RTI) request, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Odisha has told communities that they only have the right to transport MFPs on head, bullock cart or bicycle.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;In Odisha, both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the harvesting season for bamboo and kendu leaf approaches in Odisha, tension is building between the forest-dependent communities and the forest department.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Kalahandi district, around 100 Gram Sabhas are planning to assert their rights over bamboo and kendu leaf despite legal curtails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In Kalahandi Jangal Manch meeting on February 28, we decided to assert rights over bamboo and kendu by harvesting and selling them ourselves because it is our land and we have the right over these resources. We have told the forest department and we will carry out the harvesting activity towards the end of April and starting of May,&amp;rdquo; says Kunjabihari Chandan, president of Kalahandi Gram Sabha Samuh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite legally given rights on Minor Forest Produce (MFP) like bamboo and kendu under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), communities have encountered constant roadblocks in enjoying these rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;While FRA gives rights over MFPs which include bamboo and kendu, in Odisha both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them,&amp;rdquo; says Sudhansu Sekar Deo, a Kalahandi-based forest rights activist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The disjunction between the central law&amp;ndash;FRA&amp;mdash;and how things are unfolding for the people is also evident in the policies of the state government.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Responding to a Right to Information (RTI) request, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Odisha has told communities that they only have the right to transport MFPs on head, bullock cart or bicycle.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>In Odisha, both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them <br />
</em><br />
As the harvesting season for bamboo and kendu leaf approaches in Odisha, tension is building between the forest-dependent communities and the forest department.<br />
<br />
In Kalahandi district, around 100 Gram Sabhas are planning to assert their rights over bamboo and kendu leaf despite legal curtails.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;In Kalahandi Jangal Manch meeting on February 28, we decided to assert rights over bamboo and kendu by harvesting and selling them ourselves because it is our land and we have the right over these resources. We have told the forest department and we will carry out the harvesting activity towards the end of April and starting of May,&rdquo; says Kunjabihari Chandan, president of Kalahandi Gram Sabha Samuh. <br />
<br />
Despite legally given rights on Minor Forest Produce (MFP) like bamboo and kendu under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), communities have encountered constant roadblocks in enjoying these rights.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;While FRA gives rights over MFPs which include bamboo and kendu, in Odisha both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them,&rdquo; says Sudhansu Sekar Deo, a Kalahandi-based forest rights activist.<br />
<br />
The disjunction between the central law&ndash;FRA&mdash;and how things are unfolding for the people is also evident in the policies of the state government.<br />
<br />
Responding to a Right to Information (RTI) request, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Odisha has told communities that they only have the right to transport MFPs on head, bullock cart or bicycle.<br />

100 gram sabhas in Odisha's Kalahandi district to assert rights on bamboo, kendu -Ishan Kukreti

-Down to Earth In Odisha, both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them As the harvesting season for bamboo and kendu leaf approaches in Odisha, tension is building between the forest-dependent communities and the forest department. In Kalahandi district, around 100 Gram Sabhas are planning to assert their rights over bamboo and kendu leaf despite legal curtails. “In Kalahandi Jangal Manch meeting on February 28, we decided to assert rights over bamboo and kendu by harvesting and selling them ourselves because it is our land and we have the right over these resources. We have told the forest department and we will carry out the harvesting activity towards the end of April and starting of May,” says Kunjabihari Chandan, president of Kalahandi Gram Sabha Samuh. Despite legally given rights on Minor Forest Produce (MFP) like bamboo and kendu under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), communities have encountered constant roadblocks in enjoying these rights. “While FRA gives rights over MFPs which include bamboo and kendu, in Odisha both these commodities are nationalised, thereby curtailing the rights of the people on them,” says Sudhansu Sekar Deo, a Kalahandi-based forest rights activist. The disjunction between the central law–FRA—and how things are unfolding for the people is also evident in the policies of the state government. Responding to a Right to Information (RTI) request, the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Odisha has told communities that they only have the right to transport MFPs on head, bullock cart or bicycle.
