By the end of winter, nomadic tribes of J&K, the Bakerwals and the Gujjars, will for the first time be counted in a state-level census. The 2011 census did survey J&K’s nomadic population but a large number were left out because they were camping in remote high-altitude areas during the survey. This has meant that they were deprived of essential schemes and services including their rights over open pastures and forests. The new census it is hoped will facilitate the community’s rights over forest land.
