Bangaram facts.
The majority of population of Lakshadweep is Muslims and does fishing and coconut cultivation for a living. The islanders call themselves the children of the sea and their daily activities are centered on the sea. Therefore their cultural perceptions are sea oriented.
Tuna here is considered chicken of the sea and is in abundance. Other than daily consumption the fish is processed (involving boiling and smoking) into Maas which can be stored for up to two years and exported.
Islanders are free to move from one island to another. Only islanders may own land at Lakshadweep even in un inhabited islands and the coconut is private property.
Visitors to the island will require an entry permit to specific islands. Liquor is prohibited in Lakshadweep and not allowed to be brought from mainland. Only Bangaram Island is allowed to sell liquor.
