FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
The crisis highlights the increasing controversy surrounding tourism within
the tribal areas of Orissa. Visitors have always required permits but,
following stories of insensitivity and exploitation by tour groups, the
state government recently imposed even stricter regulations in some areas.
These include the homelands of the Bonda, who wear distinctive neck rings and
are considered the most fearsome and fascinating of all the tribes. Tourists
are not allowed to stay overnight in their villages, enter their homes, take
photographs or video footage, or even stand close to the adivasis.
The Italians who were kidnapped seem to have broken all the rules. “They
shouldn’t have been there, they shouldn’t have been doing what they were
doing,” said Amrit Singh, the managing director of the London-based
tour operator Transindus, which offers tailor-made tours to the tribal areas
of Orissa.
She admitted that tribal tours were controversial but urged sensitivity and
mutual respect. “They [the adivasis] don’t get much out of it,”
she said. “The only benefit for them is that they produce a lot of
handicrafts, available at the weekly markets.
“If you’re taking an organised tour, have the right permissions and are
sensitive about photography and about your demeanour in this very diverse
and different culture, then you are most welcome.”
