In a planned move to consolidate the elusive tribal segment and hopefully checkmate the pro-CPM Adivasi Kshema Samithy in its own strong hold over 2,000 landless tribals, led by their firebrand leaders C K Janu and M Geethanandan, are now busy clearing a 160 hectare crore area of Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary at Muthanga, Tamil Nadu, aiming to erect permanent huts.
