Recently, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands administration set up a Van Dhan Vikas Kendra for the Onge tribe at Dugong Creek under the Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyay Maha Abhiyan. This aims to make the Onges self-sustainable through coconut-based products. The Onges are among the most primitive tribes in India from the Negrito racial stock. They live on Little Andaman Island, the southernmost island of the Andaman archipelago. Onges are semi-nomadic and fully depend on natural food sources.
