This move is part of a broader scheme by the Odisha government to empower tribal and disadvantaged groups through land rights, reflecting their commitment to social justice and inclusive development.

The implications of this initiative are far-reaching, promising improved socio-economic conditions and a better quality of life for the beneficiaries.
