A Rs 40 lakh worth Adivasi Sanskriti Kendra (Tribal Culural Centre) is to come up at village Pakri under Balumath block in Latehar district. The state government’s SC, ST and Minority Welfare department has sent in Rs 40 lakh to the Latehar administration for this purpose.
The Kendra is like a community hall with multi purpose objectives. Here any tribal function can be arranged day and night said sources.
DC Latehar Abu Imran said last year he had been to Pakri and Jhaber villages where primitive tribal put up this demand of their Kendra.
The DC said the tribals have a fascination for the dormitory culture and such Kendra provides it to them.
He said since funds have come our officials will see its construction takes off. The district administration was in pursuit of this since long as the demand of the tribal was no misplaced added Imran.
DC said there were other demands like street light, renovation of water harvesting structure, paver road etc which we got done. Abu Imran asked the villagers to save and preserve public utility things like street light etc.
