Folk-instrument Failed Our Future / રાવણહથ્થાથી હણાયા (1 Picture and Text)
Thanks VSSM for giving chance to capture this picture
Above person belongs to Bharathari, a nomadic tribe of Gujarat, India
Traditional occupation : To sing 'Bhajans' - devotional songs with 'Ravanhaththo' - a stringed musical folk-instrument publicly and to get livelihood from people
Present sources of livelihood : To sing film songs and devotional songs with 'Ravanhathto', unorganized laboring, begging. People taste has been changed due to technology like mobile instrument, internet, i-pod so they are not interested in songs sung by bharathari.
Financial condition : worse, most of bharatharis dwell in huts made with mud on waste land or uncultivated land
Education : worse
Population : they are scattered in Gujarat so not on papers as certain numbers
