Nicobar tribals refuse to come out from jungles — as per their predictions, fresh earthquakes strike the islands
January 4, 2005 India Daily Indian Government finally confirms that threatened tribal aborigines are safe in Andaman – Nicobar islands – they sensed it coming and moved to higher grounds. They are not coming out from jungles in spite of repeated insistence of the Government. New fresh earthquakes shook the islands in the mean time. The tribals have communicated that the devastation based on their remote viewing techniques have not ended. An earthquake of moderate intensity occurred off the coast of Great Nicobar Island in the early hours on Tuesday, Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) said. The tremor measuring 5.3 on the Richter scale was recorded at 1.06 am. The epicentre of the quake was at 6.2 degrees north latitude and 92.2 degrees east longitude, IMD added. Indian coast guard and military personnel finally confirmed after reaching all the islands in Nicobar and Andaman islands that most of the threatened tribal aborigines are fine. They moved to higher grounds sensing the earthquakes In the first contact between the administration and the endangered Sentelese aborigines in Sentenel Island in Anndaman and Nicobar, the tribals greeted the Coastguard helicopters by firing arrows at them. The action photographs of the Sentenel tribals firing arrows were displayed to newsmen here by Director General of Coastguard Vice Admiral A K Singh who said these were shot when the chopper was about 50 metres from ground on the island. The Coastguard helicopters'' landing on the island was the first sign that these aborgins, who are threatened with extinction, have survived Sunday's catastrophic tidal waves. Singh said his personnel had later made a reconnaissance of the island to find that the tribals were safe on the high grounds. Similarly, the coastguard teams had come across Onge tribals, who number about 100, on the great Nicobar islands and found that most of them were also safe. He said there were similar reports on the safety of the to other threatened aborgines inhabiting various islands. http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/01-04h-05.asp --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
