describe the movement of pastoral tribes in india

In the Mountains

• The Gujjar Bakarwals of Jammu and Kashmir. 
• The Gaddi shepherds of Himachal Pradesh. 
• The cyclic movement between summer and winter pastures was typical of many pastoral communities of the Himalayas like the Bhotiyas, Sherpas and Kinnauris. 
• They had to adjust to seasonal changes and make effective use of available pastures at different places. 

On the Plateaus Plains and Deserts

• Dhangars were an important pastoral community of Maharashtra. 
• Unlike the mountain pastoralists, it was not the cold and the snow that defined the seasonal movement: rather it was the alteration of the monsoon and dry season. 
• In the dry season they moved to the coastal tracts, and left when the rains came. 
• Banjaras were also a group of graziers found in the villages of Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.

Raikas is a pastoral community of Rajasthan. They combined cultivation with pastoralism.
