Imagine there are groups of people called Nomadic and Denotified Tribes, who have unique cultures and have faced challenges.
Dr. Laxman wants everyone to know about them and help them.
He's part of the government and wants the government to count these tribes in a big survey called a census, so they can get help with money and programs.
