127 Panchayats of Giripar are demanding Tribal status for this region since 1967 and many political leaders had been given their Assurance to accomplish the ultimatum. The Hatti Community of sirmaur district that has 127 panchayats in Rajgarh, Shillai, Sangrah, Kamrau and Paonta Sahib area fulfills all eligibility conditions laid down by Lokur Committee for declaring the area as Scheduled Tribe area as Hatti community lead a separate and excluded existence and are not fully assimilated into modern mainstream society due to tough geographical and topographical conditions and limited avenues of employments due to lack of modern educational facilities in the area. It is noticeable that survey reports have repeatedly recommended granting of tribal status to area on the pattern of Jaunsar-Bawar area of adjoining Uttrakand state. Both regions shared same lifestyle, culture and traditions but the later was granted tribal status when it was shifted to Uttar Pradesh in 1967 but Trans Giri area was not ranted the tribal status despite facts favouring it.
