The British allotted the right to trade in forest products in specific areas to British companies. Activities like grazing and hunting were restricted in these areas which held economic importance through forest produce. The Grazing Act restricted grazing and hunting in these areas. Native communities like Koravas, Karachas and Yerakula which traditionally depended on grazing, hunting and collecting forest produce were grouped under the Criminal Tribes Act. Thus, not only did these communities lose their livelihood but were also distrusted and branded for the British's economic gains.

Because the colonial officials distrusted the tribals and we're suspicious of nomadic people
