💨 Abstract

In the Jharkhand assembly elections, the Congress asserts the polls are crucial for the state's "jal-jangal-zameen" (water, forest, and land), a key focus for tribal communities. They claim the Forest Rights Act of 2006, which granted forest rights to tribal communities, was undermined by the recent Forest Conservation Amendment Act, which they accuse of favoring corporations.
