Government of India started construction of Andaman Trunk road in the 80s. This road connects North Andaman – Middle Andaman — Port Blair (Capital in southern most part). Jarawa tribes mostly live in the jungles on the western side of this road. (see the map). After construction of the road, tourism started flourishing and this bought outsiders (guides, tourists) in contact with Jarawa tribes.

Safari = tourists sit in a bus, go in jungle and observe animals. Unfortunately, Andaman tour operators have been running what is termed as “Human Safari” Meaning, they take a bus full of tourists on the Andaman Trunk road. The guide will bring Jarawa tribals from the surrounding villages, make them dance in front of tourists and offer them food as “payment”. Human rights activists have been demanding that Road must be shut down.

Road: To shut or Not to Shut?
