Dekha andekha darbar : Documentary film

Abstract

There's an old legend popular among the local folks of the Dangs district of Gujarat. It says that, when offered by the Britishers, the rajas or kings of Dang chose money over the rich and prosperous jungles of the region. The Britishers agreed to keeping the trees and the jungles while kings can have their money. This kind of sums up the entire situation of the Dangs district where the kings are being paid annually even now but are deprived of their jungle and the trees.
