Paambati snake catchers

“Muthuraja”  name of the community traditionally known as snake catchers. Live in the village name “ Paambati  kalam of district Dindigal, Tamil Nadu, India.  This village has the population of around 35 families comprising around 120 members including children. I observed the following: Watch Google movie clip in this page for more details.................

 

  • Employment opportunity: Most of them survive with partial employment working in stone crushing unorganized sectors. Work for 15 days a moth. Snake-catching as traditional profession is no more legal for them.  Nevertheless, they get calls from near by villages to help catching snakes. They also claim having traditional medicines for snakebites, which they hesitated to disclose. Snake catching is no more a profession as diminishing population caused by illegal activities for its skin and parts.  For survival legal or illegal is not an issue rather, the issue is how to survive? Illegal activities give more money to such people to live better.
  • Wages: They get Rs.120/- equivalent to US$ 2.70  per day for half a year,
  • Education: All adult are uneducated but the young go to school.
  • Population control: does not seem to be working better as many of them have more than two children.
  • Electricity and Drinking water facility: The villagers explain their plight and the expectations from Tamil Nadu Government in video clip from Google. This is a curse for Tamil Nadu Government that the streets have lights but the houses lack as villager’s inability to pay for installation and bill.  
  • Living condition: Explained by the villagers in the video, some houses are in bad condition

Both Capitalism and Socialism all over the world have failed to bring down poverty level. Now World needs new order like Socio-Capitalism, in which capitalists are in check by Collective reforms. So the benefit of development is passed on to entire population. Social security and medical benefit to organized and unorganized sector workers and old age benefits maintained to population. Rural based Jobs are generated through proper research based education and investments. I quote an example:- Some thirty years back each villager in India had cow, hen, sheep or goat, could give additional earning through milk and fertilizer, now have almost vanished rather villages are getting converted to urbanization. Agricultural Research and investment not only would help breeding for milk products rather by collectively Government, investors or villagers launch centralized energy or electricity unit by animal waste and plants which are not in common use. Socio-Capitalism is a system of capitalism in participation by general population. Thus industrialists and working population are financially involved (seeking help of banks or capitalist).

  1. Need to generate resources for transportation before constructing roads.

  2. Education means Employment. Political education is of no use in present world. Learning skill to survive is education.

  3. Social Security and medical benefit is human's right, non-provision to Unorganized workers and old aged is violation of human rights.

  4. Industrial or Economic growth without job creation is  unjustified. Both medium and large industries be equally treated. Mechanical operation in some sectors be discouraged.

  5. Democracy mean also economic justice and right of each citizen. Without economic justice democracy fails.

  6. Role of Region is to influence community to join collectively for human growth. And not as present creating hatred feelings among various regions.

  7. Role of United Nations is to Unite the Nations but now has limited to Charitable care taking food assisting organization.

  8. Objective of Trade is to promote resources for population. Purpose fails when Trade grows without benefits to all population.

  9. Excessive Urbanization is root cause to environmental and human disaster. Major disease like asthma, heart disease, sinus and etc; are because of urbanized food patter and stressful life.

  10. Trade, Exchange and cooperation in Social and cultural activity improves understanding among neighboring nations.
