A tribal organisation will lead a march from Bhiwandi in Thane district to Mantralaya in south Mumbai on October 27, demanding time-bound action on pending forest rights claims, access to government documents and free, quality education for tribal children.

The Shramjivi Sanghatana announced the protest under the banner of the Samvidhan Hakka Sangharsh Morcha at a press conference on Saturday. The organisation said the march aims to secure written commitments from the state government on long-pending issues affecting tribal communities.
