The Nishad community says their people are no more awarded with fishing and sand mining contracts, which is posing a major threat to their traditional livelihood.

Sonbhadra: On April 3, 2020, when the nationwide lockdown was in place to prevent the spread of coronavirus, Anil Kumar Sahni, 26, had stepped out with his cycle cart to sell vegetables. As he reached the road passing through his hamlet, he was caught by policemen and brutally thrashed. 

Following the incident, he never dared to go out to sell vegetables again despite it being included in the list of essential items that was exempted from the curbs. The vegetable stock back home also rotted.

He also stopped going to the river bed of Sone to pluck vegetables, thinking that the next consignment would also meet the same fate if not sold. As a result, the entire crop got destroyed as it was never plucked. It caused him a loss of around Rs 3 lakh.

Almost all vegetable growers belonging to the Nishad community, at Mallahi Tola in Sonbhadra district’s Chopan Nagar Panchayat (notified area council), narrate the same saga of losses they suffered during the lockdown.

Their anger can be gauged from their resolve to “teach” the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) a lesson in the ongoing elections. Sonbhadra is going to polls on March 7 in the last phase of the ongoing Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.
