Explanation:

Mankidia tribe is from Odisha and was in news because it has been denied habitat rights inside core area of Simlipal Tiger Reserve in Odisha under historic Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006. Mankidia is one of the 13 Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTG) and is a marginalized group that critically depends on making rope with siali fibre that’s richly available in Simlipal. Hence, the second statement is incorrect.
