Aparna Rao and Michael Casimir estimated that nomads make up around 7% of the population of India. The nomadic communities in India can be broadly divided into three groups: hunter gatherers, pastoralists and the peripatetic or non-food producing groups. Among these, peripatetic nomads are the most neglected and discriminated social group in India. They have lost their livelihood because of drastic changes in transport, industries, production, entertainment and distribution systems. They find pastures for their herders
