The Dongria Kondh tribe

http://www.minefilm.com

There are 8,000 Dongria Kondh living in the Niyamgiri Hills in Orissa, India. They worship and protect Niyamgiri mountain and consider themselves the royal descendents of the mountain god.

Mining firm Vedanta Resources has plans to mine Niyamgiri, and with it destroy the Dongria Kondh's way of life. Help the Dongria Kondh now at http://www.survival-international.org/dongria

Vedanta Resources has already built a factory at the base of the mountain, much land was stolen from farmers. Now Vedanta is poisoning the river with aluminium & threatening to force the Dongria mountain civilization from their land.

This has to be be brought to the whole Worlds attention & stopped now.

A very beautiful melanated girl. They should keep outsiders out. They only desire is to divide conquer and destroy.
