The tableau depicts Toda tribe of Nilgiri district of Tamil Nadu identified as one of the six primitive tribal groups of the state during Republic Day in Delhi. They speak a non-linguistic language and have unique appearance, manners and customs.

The Toda village is called a Mund. The huts are small and half barrel-shaped, with a small doorway. The village also has a unique hut, called “Tirierl” or dairy temple.

The sole occupation of Todas is Cattle-herding and dairy-work. The traditional garment of Todas consists of a single piece of cloth with red and black embroidery. Todas are vegetarians. The women makeup their hair with ringlet.

The mountain District of the Nilgiris is also home to the flowers called “Kurinji” which blooms once in 12 years.

This year Republic Day Parade on Rajpath will witness tableaux from 17 States and Six Ministries of the Central Government. These tableaux will showcase varied themes starting from country’s rich cultural heritage and socio-economic development to nation’s progress in key areas like IT, Women, Empowerment and Environment Protection.
