The Andaman and Nicobar are famous for its azure colour beaches, pristine corals and lush green forests.
It is also the witness to human history for being home to nearly 6000-year-old tribes. Of the 4 tribes, only the Sentinels have managed to maintain their way of life by not welcoming contact from outsiders. They live in a small number on strait island, The Onge.
Jarawas are the most visible tribes. These tribes are mainly hunter-gatherers like fish, wild boar and honey.
With the rise in tourism and the need for space, forest cover is also shrinking. Hopefully, we figure out a way for sustainable tourism.
