Our association with the Central Jail in Jagdalpur, Chhattisgarh is yet another initiative to provide the tribals a bigger market for their handicrafts and produce and help them become self-reliant and build an Atmanirbhar Bharat. The new products included in the enhanced Tribes India product range, the Tribes India e-Marketplace will make for excellent gifting products and will help spread cheer among these disadvantaged sections of our society.

These attractive moorthis of Ganesha, Lakshmi, Durga will not only make for gifting items, but will also help make the tribal jail inmates self-reliant.
