ABSTRACT

India has the largest concentration of tribal people anywhere in the world except perhaps in
Africa. The areas inhabited by the tribal constitute a significant part of the underdeveloped areas
of the country. The tribal people live mostly in isolated villages or hamlets. On the whole, tribal
people are segregated in the society from the general people in various respects. For the
development of a society there is need for equitable and balanced progress of all sections of
human communities and for this perspective, it is imperative to bring the weaker, deprived and
discriminated sections such as scheduled Tribes (STs) in India to the mainstream of national
development. It puts stress on the constitutional safeguard, several committees and commissions,
Schemes and programmes and the fundamental Principles of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru (The
Tribal Panchasheela) related to tribal development. Tribal population is the aboriginal inhabitants
of India who have been living a life based on the natural environment and have cultural patterns
congenial to their physical and social environment. The Concerted efforts for the development of
these groups by the Central and State Governments have had only marginal impacts on their
socio-economic conditions in spite of the various welfare measures and constitutional protection.
An analysis of the development and welfare programmes addressing poverty, land alienation,
exploitation, education, health care, employment, social development and in their reach out to
these target groups and discussion of policy implications and the strengthening of service
delivery.
