Introduction:
Tripura is India’s third smallest hilly state, located in the North-eastern part of
India. Tripura state lies between 22°56' to 24°32' North latitude and between 90°09' to
92°20' East longitudes and bordered on the North, West and South by Bangladesh, on
the East by the state Mizoram and on the North-East by the state Assam. Dhalai District
of Tripura covers an area of 2523 square kilometer with district headquarter Ambassa.
According to the census 2011 the population of the district is around 3,77,988. The
district counted among the country’s 250 backward districts1. Dhalai comprises mostly
hilly and forest covered areas. Topographical features of the district include huge
natural resources, favourable climate as well as adequate rainfall. The Dhalai district
is basically tribal in character. The major tribes are - Tripuri, Reang, Kuki, Koloi and
Chakma. Dhalai is predominantly an agricultural district and around 75% of the district
is classified as forest land and 53% of the landscape is classified as hilly land2.
From the ancient times to date, people healed themselves with traditional herbal
medicines3. The people living in the rural areas of Tripura also depend on herbal
medicines and local medical practitioners, popularly known as Ochai, for the treatment
of different ailments. The Ochai possess very rich experiences about the diagnosis and
treatment of several minor to serious diseases; they are generally specialist in the art of
traditional folk medicine among their community4. In the recent years, a global trend
of interest has been noticed in the traditional system of medicines3. This study on folk
medicinal practice is done in order to document the prevailing folk drugs and treatment

procedures among the peoples of Dhalai district of Tripura with a view to provide lead
material for the discovery of new drugs of natural origin which are very specific to

Study area:
The present study covers different areas of the Dhalai District of Tripura
which lies in 23.56' North and 91.51' East. It is bounded on the North and South by
international border of Bangladesh, West by South Tripura and West Tripura district
and in East by North Tripura district. The total geographical area of Dhalai District is
2523 Sq.km which is about 24% of the total state area. Total population of the District
is 8.75 lacks.
Materials and Methods:
Field trips were carried out in various seasons during 2012-2013 in different
areas of Dhalai district of Tripura (Fig- I). For information on local health tradition and
health practices local health practitioners, village head, elderly experienced persons
were interviewed and folk medicinal claims were documented in the prescribed format
adopting the methodology proposed by Jain & Rao5, Jain6, and Jain & Mudgal7 as
per Guideline of CCRAS. The specimens of claimed medicinal plants are collected,
processed and preserved in the Herbarium of North Eastern India Ayurveda Research
Institute, Guwahati.

Discussion:
Dhalai district of Tripura is rich in folk medicine and common people rely on
both local healers and modern health care facilities. The local healers are available in
the market places in specific days and people call the healers to visit patients at their
own home if necessary. The traditional healers use medicines prepared from herbal,
mineral or animal sources based on the knowledge gained from their forefathers. Most
of the herbs used in the treatment are available in their locality. The rare herbs they
used are collected from the forests and kept dry if possible. The mineral products
are purchased from the market. The healers prefer freshly prepared medicine for the
treatment. It is seen that many of the traditional healers also use some ‘Mantra’ therapy
for different diseases along with oral medications.
In this survey of Dhalai district of Tripura, 29 folk medicinal claims were collected
and are documented out of which 10 are of single herb preparation, 19 compound
formulations and 2 claims among these contain product of animal origin like Cypraea
moneta and Earth worm. The information on folk claims of plants have been compared
with published literature and Ayurvedic texts8, 10-24 and found that herbs like Pyrrosia
piloselloides and Clerodendrum colebrookrianumare not mentioned. Some of the plants
though mentioned in the Ayurvedic texts, yet their reported use like Tamarindus indica,
Cajanus cajan (in diarrhea and dysentery), Citrus medica, Citrus aurantifolia, Carum
carvi(in renal calculi), Thespesia lampas, Cynodon dactylon (in diabetes),are different
and seems to be new. Simultaneously it is also seen that many of the documented herbs
bears the same property as per Ayurvedic texts but in case of compound formulations
the combination is new and unique. As the healers claim these formulations are very
effective and they are treating large number of patients successfully, it is quite essential
to subject these folk drugs to comprehensive experimental and clinical study in order
to incorporate these formulations in Ayurvedic medicines.
Conclusion:
The survey of Dhalai district of Tripura reveals that the common people are
highly dependent on traditional healers and folk medicine is widely practiced. The
documented 29 folk medicinal claims for treatment of different diseases and conditions
show the wide-ranging use of the herbal and herbo-mineral medicines for treatment
of different ailments by traditional healers and common people of Dhalai district of
Tripura. This traditional high valued native knowledge needs thorough attention of
scientists to undertake follow-up investigations to their medical efficacy and safety to
validate the claims.
