✅ Recognized by their tattooed faces, they are traditional hunters and warriors but now their main occupation is agriculture.
✅They were the last to give up the practice of head-hunting, severing heads of enemies after attacking rival tribes.

#METOO MOVEMENT: It was a civil society movement in 2017 where women survivors of sexual harassment started on social media about their experiences of gender-based violence.
Many women in India from the media and entertainment industry, as well others who can access to social media in English, also used the social media to publicise their accounts.
This led to public scrutiny of high-profile male figures and led to some resignations and legal action. For ex. M J Akbar (Former Union Minister) and R K Pachauri, former Chairman of IPCC.
However, the movement excluded women from rural areas, informal sector and those that do not use social media.
