It symbolised the passing of ancestral heritage to the highest authority of the nation.
"Our culture, identity, and heritage are imprinted in this gift," the Maram Union said in a statement.
Expressing gratitude to Prime Minister Modi, the Maram Union welcomed the PM-JANMAN scheme as a holistic approach to improving the socio-economic conditions of PVTGs, who are considered more vulnerable due to slower development and unique cultural characteristics.
