Economic and Political WeeklySummary: The Rabhas who live in the Buxa tiger reserve's buffer zone must see some irony in their officially-acknowledged status of partners in wildlife conservation. The tiger project has so far meant only curtailed employment and access to the forest for them, for the concept of popular participation in conservation is still only a concept. What is wanting is an effort to address appropriately the question of indigenous peoples' rights. - Reproduced
