Question

2.
Study the case of 'Shompens' tribals and answer the questions that follow.
The Shompens, a shy, primitive tribe of Great Nicobar, has a population of only 390 Shompens.
They are hunters and food gatherers who live in thick
jungles. They use bows, spears and arrows for hunting.
The Union Ministry of Tribal Affairs is making a policy
to discourage the tourists from interacting with the
Shompens to safeguard their identity and health, which is
a major concern.

from negative outside influence? Justify your answer.​

Answer 2

Yes Social isolation of these tribals will further add to their misery or protect them from negative outside influence. Contacts should be facilitated rather than discouraged with indigenous tribes that remain isolated from the modern world.

Explanation:

• The time has come for the offical line to shift in uncontacted tribes by attempting to reach out to people who may not be aware of the other humanity first and regulated.
• IT's an illusion to defend. All these areas are available to loggers, miners, drug traffickers, hunters and explorers and the accidental interactions are inevitable and disastrous.
• However, Controlled connection between tribes is independent of any exploitation of their land which takes place at an alarming rate and leads inevitably to accidental, catastrophic contacts.
• The contact with them almost always leads to more political protection, not less protection, given that they are formally incorporated into government protection and land titling processes.
• The fact that groups are left isolated yet exposed to dangerous and uncontrolled interactions with the outside world violates governmental accountability. Through denying approved, well organized contacts, governments simply make sure that catastrophic and unintended contacts take place.
