The Tamil Nadu Federation of Pastoral Peoples Sangams presents its work on pastoral rights, common grazing lands, indigenous livestock, and herding communities across the state.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-01 issue.
For
Tamil Nadu pastoral communities and their advocates
Worth noticing
The homepage defines pastoralists partly by a concrete threshold: livestock move outside their village for at least a month each year.

Field notes

The federation describes itself as a state-level network supporting district- and taluk-level pastoral sangams. Its account links grazing commons to practical livelihoods, including livestock penning, paddy-field weed reduction, and duck rearing. The homepage also lists a petition concerning Forest Rights Act grazing rights and identifies the Kidai Goat & Sheep FPO as a sister organisation.
