Largely because of their low status, Dusadh have had to find creative, though often demeaning ways of making a living. The Dusadh are often employed as village watchmen and messengers. They are famous for catching wild animals, extracting honey from beehives, and making fans from peacock feathers. Others have even lower status jobs, such as taking insects off the backs of cattle or begging. Some work in agriculture. They are often unemployed because other communities either think they don't have the right agricultural skills or they view them as thieves and criminals. They worship several Hindu deities. There is a need for friendships based on trust.

Ministry Obstacles: Christian workers need to note the extreme poverty of the Dusadh community and not neglect their material and physical needs. They need to approach them with respect, humility, and love.

Scripture Focus: "Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you."
- Psalm 63:3

Prayer Focus: May many from this people group understand this and act upon it. Ask God to provide good schools for their children, and the desire of Dusadh parents to send their children to school. Ask God to pave the way to improve their standard of living. Pray for Christians to be found among the Dusadh, and that they will be zealous in teaching the community to know and serve the Lord.
