Niyamgiri Calling!!

All nature freaks plan your pilgrimage to the sacred hills to cleanse all sins of consuming aluminium cans, tetra-packs, polythene, petroleum, etc…

Let Niyam Raja, the Lord of the Law of Nature purify you!

It is Mango Season. And Jackfruit Season. And Pineapple Season.

First week of June all Fruits Ripen.

Dudka. Kalimuni. Belua. Boda. Lesnia. Dubli. Kachaswadi. Badda. Dongar. Junudi. Kelua. Raja. Baakdi. Kadalipheni. Ladia.

These are some of the indigenous varieties of Mango in Niyamgiri. All of them are endangered by Vedanta’s proposed bauxite mining.

Join the Niyamgiri Mango Festival. By a perennial stream side. Under the thick canopy of a millennia-old forest. Within the thick aroma of ripe mangoes…

Take a bite and take a vow…
