Who they are
The tribal Valmiki inhabit hill and forest regions in southern India, with Telugu as their primary language. With an identity deeply connected to nature and oral traditions, they maintain strong clan ties and family solidarity. As they face geographic isolation and social changes, they preserve their ancestral customs and communal cultural heritage with dignity.
