Why stories of Birsa not in school books as we find of other freedom fighters

Mohan Yadav is talking to Madhuri tai from Yavatmal district of Maharashtra who travels from one district to another telling people about Birsa Munda. She asks books tell about other freedom fighters but why not about Birsa. She says if it continues like this then adivasis will finish soon. First they called us Adivasi, then now they call us Vanvasi ( forest dweller) and soon they will start calling us Swargvasi ( dead people). We need to unite and fight.Mohanji@8602008777
