Amit Shah said, “The makers of our Constitution have given every person the right to live with self-respect in their original religion. No one can change anyone’s religion by greed, greed or force and I believe that if the tribal community gathered here today (Vanvasi Kumbh) decides that whatever may be our religion, we will continue to live our lives according to the different types of beliefs of the tribal communities, then it will be very important. Shah said that all the tribes have implemented the mantra of unity in diversity and diversity in unity without any written rule.

At that time, despite having no facilities of communication, Lord Birsa Munda spread the message from Jharkhand to Gujarat and across India to tribal communities that this is our country, our religion is the true religion, and no one can occupy our forests.”

Today, if there is any biggest sustainable model, it is the one created by our tribal communities, and we have come forward to save it. Without any written rules, all the tribes have worked together to fulfill the mantra of ‘unity in diversity and diversity in unity’.” Have done.”
