Muthanga has reduced itself to a bunch of litigations. The waves of enthusiasm generated by the Janu-led agitation before the Secretariat and the ray of hope that emerged on account of the agreement concluded with the Antony Government to rehabilitate the displaced tribal people together constituted moments of purposeful activism and meaningful politics in Kerala. Had the agreement been implemented by providing the tribal population the promised land and the basic amenities, it would have seen the merger of matured activism and responsible Governance. But that was not to be.
