The Banjara people are a people who speak lambadi or Lambani. All gypsy languages are linked linguistically, stemming from ancient Sanskrit and belonging to the North Indo-Aryan language family. Lambadi is the heart language of the Banjara, but it has no written script. The Banjara speak a second language of the state they live in and adopt that script. They are listed under 53 different names. Historically, these are the root Gypsies of earth. During the British colonial rule, these gypsy nomads of India were given the name Banjara, but they call themselves Ghor. The Banjaras are a colourful, versatile and one of the largest people groups of India, inhabiting most of the districts in India. The Banjara are a sturdy, ambitious people and have a light complexion. The Banjara were historically nomadic, keeping cattle, trading salt and transporting goods. Most of these people now have settled down to farming and various types of wage labour. Their habits of living in isolated groups away from other, which was a characteristic of their nomadic days, still persist. Their unique dress, heritage, customs and language distinguish them from the majority population, and they maintain a separate lifestyle. The banjara gypsies love storytelling, music, songs and dance. Men play drums and women dance in a circle chanting to the rhythmic beat. The Banjara are now experiencing rapid changes, and their traditional customs, practices and institutions are undergoing far-reaching transformations. They are now settled as agricultural labourers. With ninty million Banjara in India and thirteen million outside India, there may be hundred million Banjara/gypsies live in the world. The Banjaras are located throughout India. The Banjara are primarily Hindu-Animists with their own gods and goddesses, festivals, and animistic worship practices. They offer goat sacrifices and are also bound by superstitions, fears and witchcraft. And only 12-15% of Banjara people are literate. Banjara Gypsies are proud people with strong family traditions. They have close-knit family relationships with little involvement outside their own community. Nuclear or joint families often live together in one home. Banjara women are easily recognized by their colorful traditional costume with mirrors and coins stitched into their clothing. In the past, Banjara men also wore distinctive dress including an Indian dhoti, along with a long white shirt and turban. Today, mens' dress is generally indistinguishable from other Indians in the cities. The most loved Banjara food is called bhaggi, which is a spinach leaf curry mixed with goat meat and eaten with bhatti -- a flat bread similar to a tortilla. Banjaras in contemporary periods. In the 18th century a chain of mobile traders connected India to the outside world. Central Asian traders brought goods to India and the Banjaras and other traders carried these to local markets. They bought and sold these goods as they moved from one place to another, transporting them on their animals. They moved over long distances with their animals. They lived on milk and other pastoral products. They also exchanged wool, ghee, etc., with settled agriculturists for grain, cloth, utensils and other products. The Banjaras were the most important tradernomads. Their caravan was called tanda. Sultan Alauddin Khalji used the Banjaras to transport grain to the city markets. Emperor Jahangir wrote in his memoirs that the Banjaras carried grain on their bullocks from different areas and sold it in towns. They transported food grain for the Mughal army during military campaigns. With a large army there could be 100,000 bullocks carrying grain. The Banjaras Peter Mundy, an English trader who came to India during the early seventeenth century, has described the Banjaras: “In the morning we met a tanda of Banjaras with 14,000 oxen. They were all laden with grains such as wheat and rice. These Banjaras carry their household – wives and children – along with them. One tanda consists of many families. Their way of life is similar to that of carriers who continuously travel from place to place. They own their oxen. They are sometimes hired by merchants, but most commonly they are themselves merchants. They buy grain where it is cheaply available and carry it to places where it is dearer. From there, they again reload their oxen with anything that can be profitably sold in other places. In a tanda there may be as many as 6 or 7 hundred persons. They do not travel more than 6 or 7 miles a day – that, too, in the cool weather. After unloading their oxen, they turn them free to graze as there is enough land here, and no one there to forbid them.?” Banjaras were a community much more in evidence all over India thousand of years from now. In fact, banjaras were called the "exporters" of grain, salt and other goods to distant provinces and regions of the country. Essentially, banjaras were a numerically larger community, operating on a much larger scale, traversing a much larger geographic area. They are also called as Vimukta Jati and Nomadic Tribes. The social category generally known as the Denotified and Nomadic Tribes (DNTs) covers a population of approximately 6 crores. In the period of Raja and Maharajas they however earn their bread and butter by hard working and doing ladeni work. In British period due to deforestation, industrialization and mammoth constructions work they used to get works of labour and loaders. But in the later stage due to advent of machine age and cutting of jungle and increasing dependency on machines by the British these people became jobless. By working in different areas and settling in those areas they became no longer nomadic and bereft of their earlier occupations, they were suspected of being desperate criminals by the police and public alike, and continue to be hounded as in colonial times. And by the British Government they were notified as criminal tribals. Soon after Independence, these communities notified as criminal tribals were denotified by the Government. This was followed by the substitution of a series of acts, generally entitled 'Habitual Offenders Act'. This preserved most of the provisions of the former CT Act, except the premise that an entire community can be 'born' criminal. The denotification and the passing of the HOAs should have ended the misery of the communities penalised under the CT Act. But, that has not happened. After independence, various state governments have done little to restore land to the DNTs. Schemes for economic upliftment does not seem to have benefited them. The rate of illiteracy among the DNTs is higher than among Scheduled Castes or Scheduled Tribes, malnutrition more frequent and provisions for education and health care almost negligible since most of them have remained nomadic. Above all, there is no limit to the atrocities that the DNTs have to face. However, in some State like Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Delhi, Bihar, Punjab and Orissa they have been included in SC/ST List. In India, as described above, it was the colonial revenue policies which destroyed the itinerant/nomadic communities' earlier trading practices. Till 19th century the local people must find the nomads quite useful for the unusual wares they bring periodically. Their various skills of weaving mats or making baskets or playing musical instruments and more dramatically in the case of acrobats and dancers make them a colourful and interesting presence, in all probability providing relief and diversion from the tedium of daily routine.

    Research Journal of Recent Sciences _________________________________________________ ISSN 2277-2502 Vol. 4(ISC-2014), 11-15 (2015) Res. J. Recent. Sci. A Historical Transition of Banjara Community in India with Special Reference to South India Nagaveni T. Department of History, Government First Grade College, Kuvempunagar, Mysore-570 023, INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in, www.isca.me Received 13 rd November 2014, revised 9th March 2015, accepted 25 th March 2015 Abstract An incisive insight into the literature on Banjara Community clearly indicates that ample literature has been produced by the Western and Indian scholars. Yet the treatment of the problem is exponential. Deep delve into the process of historical transition of the Banjara Community enables us to focus on various controversial issues and complexities of historical significance. Issues like Semantics, Historicity, Location, Ethnicity, Categorization, Caste-clan, Dichotomy and the community’s identity continued to gravitate the attention of the scholars and researchers alike. Lack of unanimity among the scholars and policy makers on these contentious issues has added perplexity to the puzzle. Ambiguous explanations given by the community historians have further complicated the clear-cut understanding of the process of historical transition. The antiquity of this Banjara Community is traceable to Harappa and Mohenjodaro. Its influence continued to spread and retain its relevance down the centuries to shape and reshape the course of history. There is a speculation about the group of Banjaras who mere concentrated outside India and called as Roma Gypsy, where their social history is not yet clear but proved to be of Indian Origin. This paper however strives to focus on historical transition within the context of India from 13 th Century A.D.

  • Gypsies of India in Need of Love
    BANJARA/GYPSIES OF INDIA THE MOST RESPONSIVE GROUP TO GOSPEL, YET REMAIN UNREACHED The first Banjara/Gypsy M.Th Graduate under Senate of Serampore University, India. A happy moment Greetings Dear Friends In Christ, Greetings in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am indeed happy to meet you through this presentation and share about Gypsies and their longing for Salvation in Jesus Christ. Banjara are one of the largest ethnic community, under different groups scattered all over India and in most European countries. The European Gypsy trace their origin to Western India who have migrated between 12th -13th century. Majority Banjara live in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra. As they live outside of the mainstream social system, they are hardly reached by outsiders, even by the gospel of Jesus. Further, their secluded social life, religious and cultural customs and practices, peculiar characteristics, keep them away from non-Banjara. Banjara people are one of the most backward, uneducated, poor, suffer severe health care, kill girl child and they are discriminated both by casteism and racially. Education level is very low among them. There are very few theologically trained Banjara pastors working among their own people. I The Beulah Ministries was began in 2009 to work for Banjara people in state of Karnataka and also in partnership with other churches. The focus of ministry was among rural villages and children. It had a very good beginning and many children accepted Jesus. Due to lack of sponsors and funds the ministry was closed, and the congregation was handed over to another church.

Biswas and vetted by the author.) Reviewed by Vijay Kumar Roy* Padma Shri Dr. Shyam Singh Shashi is an eminent Hindi poet, anthropologist and social scientist. He has Encyclopedia of Humanities and Social Sciences (50 volumes), Encyclopedia of Indian Tribes (12 volumes), Encyclopedia of World Women (10 volumes) and Encyclopedia Indica (150 volumes); many poetry collections and other important books to his credit. The present book, Nomads of India (2015) is a great contribution to the knowledge of mankind. The book presents anthropological, historical and sociocultural studies of nomadic communities of India. This is the result of extensive studies on these communities in India and abroad by the writer. In the preface of the book the writer mentions about his amazement that we usually talk about the great world travellers – Columbus, Vasco-De-Gama, Fi-yan and When-Sang but not those nomads who have been travelling since ages from the Himalayas to Kanyakumari and also to different countries. They are neglected and disadvantaged groups of the society. The writer intends to create “an awareness among the young readers about the forgotten and neglected communities and to work for their well- being in missionary spirit.” (6) The book has ten chapters, each dealing with different groups and kinds of nomads living in different parts of India and the world. In the first chapter, the writer finds that nomads are ‘a proud and self-reliant community’.

    Consortium for Research on Educational Access, Transitions and Equity South Asian Nomads - A Literature Review Anita Sharma CREATE PATHWAYS TO ACCESS Research Monograph No. 58 January 2011 University of Sussex Centre for International Education The Consortium for Educational Access, Transitions and Equity (CREATE) is a Research Programme Consortium supported by the UK Department for International Development (DFID). Its purpose is to undertake research designed to improve access to basic education in developing countries. It seeks to achieve this through generating new knowledge and encouraging its application through effective communication and dissemination to national and international development agencies, national governments, education and development professionals, non-government organisations and other interested stakeholders. Access to basic education lies at the heart of development. Lack of educational access, and securely acquired knowledge and skill, is both a part of the definition of poverty, and a means for its diminution. Sustained access to meaningful learning that has value is critical to long term improvements in productivity, the reduction of inter- generational cycles of poverty, demographic transition, preventive health care, the empowerment of women, and reductions in inequality. The CREATE partners CREATE is developing its research collaboratively with partners in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

This year’s IUAES Inter-congress is intended to provide participants with an opportunity to dis- cuss and develop a comprehensive insight into the diversity of ways in which scientific research and scholarship can be, has been or will be employed to understand and engage in social pro- cesses and to consider the various risks brought about by new technologies, global economic development, changes in the world’s demographic structure and the increased complexity of managing contemporary societies. In particular, it will consider the extent to which and how privatization of knowledge has become a serious global socio-political threat, not only because it often precludes the general public from knowing about or understanding important new insights in scientific research and scholarship, but also because it results in knowledge being more and more unevenly distributed around the globe to the extent that, if knowledge is privatized, the global south will increasingly be deprived of access to new knowledge and the potential to use it to improve life. The ethnological and anthropological sciences encompass an abundance of different research fields and perspectives, particularly as they develop in diverse parts of the world.

Teachers College Columbia University, USA Abstract Even in the post Education for All (EFA) era, nomadic groups remain largely absent from educational policy and services. Additionally, there is a severe lack of scholarship in the field of nomadic education, with information on groups in Pakistan completely missing from the current discourse. I conducted a qualitative analysis of interviews of the members of the Bakarwal community. This study provides an examination of fresh data and it also functions as a baseline research for future studies on the Bakarwal nomads in Pakistan. I used a mixed methods approach in this study to better understand the educational goals of nomadic groups and to consider alternative methods of education to achieve these goals. In order to determine the benefits and associated challenges of education as perceived by the Bakarwal community eight interviews in total were conducted; two focus group interviews with recent settlers and one with the old settlers of the transhumant Bakarwal community.

  • Introduction from Nomads to Artisans
    UDY T From Nomads to Artisans 5 A case of Sabala’s experience of promoting sustainable CASE S livelihoods for Lambanis in Karnataka Brajesh Pandey and Poorvaja Kumar Introduction Lambanis, a nomadic tribe, comprises a significant portion of the extremely poor in Bijapur and Bellary valley of Karnataka. Being nomadic, they are landless and dependent upon other rural households. With the gradual decline in agriculture, the living conditions of Lambanis were deteriorating further due to loss of traditional livelihood options. Lambanis, especially women, are also known for their hand-crafted dress materials and jewelry (popularly known as Banjara art) which is a part of their traditional attire. In these changed times, Lambanis of Bijapur are losing their traditional artisanal skills and their attires are also changing. This was leading to loss of a rich traditional craft form. Sabala, a voluntary organisation set up in 1986, works with Lambanis in Bijapur and has succeeded in developing a sustainable livelihood model for around 350 ultra-poor households by utilizing their traditional skills while developing products for modern markets. Sabala worked with a value chain approach wherein it looked at each component of the supply chain and developed standardized production processes to ensure timeliness and high quality. Sabala set up a ‘linked enterprise’ - Crafts Development Center (CDC) - to facilitate interaction of communities with market, both domestic and export, and is now selling its products under the brand name of ‘Nomads’. This has had a significant impact at the community level wherein each woman earns upto Rs. 2000 per month. The initiative has led to revival of a traditional craft, reduction of migration and the settlement of the nomadic tribe in a respectable and dignified manner.

  • A Comparative Study India, Mongolia, Jordan Mobile Pastoralist
    A Comparative study India, Mongolia, Jordan Mobile Pastoralist Communities around the World Introduction Approximately 32,000 people belong to the Bedouin and non-Bedouin mobile pastoralist communities of the West Bank. Mobile pastoralist communities in the West Bank are traditionally herders, migrating with their livestock to different locations according to the season. The majority of Bedouin communities in the West Bank are refugees who were uprooted from their land following the 1948 War. These communities are uniquely vulnerable. They are classified as refugees, but are rarely included in the systems of aid that are granted to refugees living in refugee camps. Most of them live on land they do not own, and have been forced to assume a sedentary lifestyle, barring them from practicing their traditional livelihoods and restricting their access to income. After countless meetings and conversations with men and women from dozens of communities, and as our understanding of the challenges faced by Bedouin communities grew, a need arose to understand how the experiences of mobile pastoralist communities in the West Bank compare to those of mobile pastoralists across the world. To what extent are local spatial planning regimes in other countries taking into account the needs and lifestyles of the mobile pastoralist communities under their jurisdiction? In what ways are local governments providing services such as health clinics, schools, and water and electricity infrastructure to mobile pastoralist communities? What lessons can be learned from the successes and failures of other countries in respecting and promoting the particular mobile pastoralist lifestyle, and how could we implement these lessons in different contexts?
